Music reviews of More Miles Than Money: Live 1994-96

Music Review: Fantastic live album!
Rating: 5 Stars

This is indeed a fine live album with a great song selection. Escovedo's "Sway" is one of my favorite covers, of probably my favorite Stones song, except that he replaces the bluesy drunken swagger of the original for a more contemplative, but no less powerful, reading. "Pissed Off 2AM" is a beautiful, sad song as well. I saw him back in '98, where he also played a rollicking "Hot Legs" cover, not included here.

See him live if you can.

Description of More Miles Than Money: Live 1994-96

More Miles Than Money: Live 1994-96 is the most compelling solo release yet from this Austin roots rock legend, an alumnus of Rank & File, True Believers, and Buick MacKane. On these live recordings, Alejandro Escovedo broods--usually quietly--in front of solemn picking and a weary cello or violin, as is the case during a beautiful version of his best song, "Pissed Off 2 A.M." A couple of times, though, he shows he can still rock out (a wicked "I Wanna Be Your Dog"), and when the electric guitar springs in to steal the show, during the Stones' "Sway," the sudden contrast takes your breath away. --David Cantwell
