Music reviews of Liquid White Light
Music Review: Laid Back Poi
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a concert from 1996 after Poi Dog Pondering moved from Austin to Chicago. It is just under 2 hours long. The sound quality is pretty good, but not perfect. The audience noise is kept to a minimum but sometimes cranked up a the beginning and end of songs (audience noise is not necessary on a live album. To get it, they have to put up audience microphones. Then they mix up or down the audience noise to get the effect they want want. Some live albums actually have audience noise edited in from a completely different concert.)
For most of the first CD, the band is very laid back. The music soft, slow but beautiful. It doesn't have the primal energy that I remember when I used to see the band in Austin in the early 1990s. Then, they were much more like Rusted Root (but probably better). I like that they are playing these songs in a new way, and this live album is just a retread or copy of the study album or past live performances.
On the second CD the energy level does pick up and these really rock at the end.
What I don't like is that this CD set contains most of the "hits". Poi Dog Pondering never really had any hits, but these are the most popular songs by the band. There are only a few surprises on the album. However, since the band plays many of the songs in a different, more deliberate way, that makes up for not having any "new stuff".
Description of Liquid White Light
Liquid White Light finds Poi Dog incarnating what should be pop music anthems into a living mix of delicate beats. This double-CD live set, recorded during a sold-out five-night run at Chicago's historic Vic Theater, shows the current state of the band, and their masterful evolution from folksy to funky, making this album a bedfellow of electronica.General CDs
