Music reviews of Archive & Live (At the Albert Hall 1972)
Music Review: Worth it for "Live at the Albert Hall" alone
Rating: 4 Stars
This is a two-part set. "Archive" has been available on CD since the mid-90's and is a reasonably well-done collection of Webb's notable work. "Live at the Albert Hall" as an addition is an amazing concert.
Most of Webb's repertoire for this concert is standard fare. The commentary between songs is great. Webb's description of writing "Didn't We" and flunking out of music school is hilarious.
And he does do some out of the way tunes you won't encounter elsewhere. Webb does "Pocket Full of Keys" which appeared on "Sunshower", which was a 70's collaboration between himself and Thelma Houston and as part of a Boston Pops concert featuring Glen Campbell doing Webb songs.
The big surprise (or shock to some) is Webb doing a Frank Zappa song, "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama." It's twisted and well done.
Description of Archive & Live (At the Albert Hall 1972)
Import only double-disc collection. Jimmy Webb is that rarity in rock music, a professional songwriter who achieved stardom in that capacity. Archive is an excellent 20-track overview of Webb's criminally overlooked career as a performer from 1970 to 1977, his most productive period, for Warner/Reprise. While he is best remembered as the composer of hits for others ('Galveston', 'Wichita Lineman' , 'By The Time I Get To Phoenix'), this collection offers proof that he was equally adept at interpreting his own songs, often times bringing more emotion to them. Disc 2 consists of Webb's outstanding 1972 live performance at the Albert Hall, previously only available as part of the (deleted) US box set `The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress. 37-track double disc.
