5.0 out of 5 stars Great Band, Great CD, July 2 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: 5 Alive! (Audio CD)

I fortunately was given this CD by a band member of Carbon Leaf, and it literally didn't leave my CD player for weeks! I saw the guys play and they completely blew me away. The energy and quality of their live show is just awesome. This CD really captures the Carbon Leaf live experience. This CD is a really good introduction of Carbon Leaf. Some of my personal favorite of this disc are Home, Blue Ridge Laughing, Torn to Tattered, Wanderin' Around, American Tale, Desperation Song, and Toy Soldiers. However, all the songs are fantastic. This is just an all around great CD from an all around great band. Everyone do yourself a favor: start listening to Carbon Leaf.

5.0 out of 5 stars Completely unique band with familiar influences, May 9 2004

This review is from: 5 Alive! (Audio CD)

These guys sound like they grew up on 80's Athens rock, bluegrass & celtic traditions, and spent some formative time grooving to Phish.

But they are completely their own. With incredible guitar riffs to great vocals, they create their own sound. They understand the power of traditional roots to move their audiences, and are fabulous live.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best live band I've heard, Sep 17 2003

This review is from: 5 Alive! (Audio CD)

This album is perfect for people who have heard Carbon Leaf but have never had the good fortune to see them in concert. Carbon Leaf's passion is to perform and this album let's that shine through. Between the amazing musicality exhibited in the solos, the energy of the performances, and the creativity in adapting covers of other songs to their style, this album is a winning combination. The other great thing about this album is getting to hear some of their new songs that aren't studio recorded yet.

If you've never heard Carbon Leaf before, this might be a good one to start with. It'll get you hooked and you'll start watching their website for the next time they're in your neck of the woods.
