"(Vibration 2.2 is)...Very Cool!"

Product Description:
American Music has become increasingly diverse. On just about any radio dial in the United States the sounds of many of the earth's latitudes and longitudes can be found. But there remains a Prime Meridian in this country's musical identity and that is the music of the mountains and the rural south. The blues influenced, minstrel show informed, gospel infused balladry that has come to be known, generically, as Bluegrass or old-time music. It is this music, uniquely interpreted by the Celebrated Renaissance Band, that you will hear on this album.

4 out of 5 stars Nice snapshot of a great local band.......2006-11-18

I saw Agent Orange about 3-4 times in 1986-87, and while this is more power pop than what I remember...IT DOES still have the feeling/guitar sound of what I recall. It does sound like there might be audience track here-but who cares. The band sounds great. Compare with Bloostained Hitz-much more pure Agent Orange. I'd love to see Mike release a live recording from The Music Machine in that later 80's period---Gibson SG and Marshall amps!!!!!!

1 out of 5 stars Major Label screws up again.......2003-12-08

I'll have to agree with the previous reviewer. I'm not intimately familiar with Agent Orange, but this is anything but "Real Live Sound". From the faked roadie intro to the added screaming to the studio recorded between song banter, this is a prime example of how major record labels manipulate perfectly good bands. Given that is was recorded in 1991, during the heyday of the cocaine and glam fueled pop metal era (in L.A., no less) it's a wonder that it isn't worse. Some of the songs are good, however, but to put them into rotation on my pirate radio station I had to do some pretty heavy editing. Is Restless Records still in business? They shouldn't be.

4 out of 5 stars Raw, but with lots of emotion........2002-11-30

OK, yes this album is raw and yes Mike's vocals are a little harsh in some places, but it is a great live album for the diehard fan of old school punk. In fact, a lot of the songs are different versions then the studio ones, and sound very cool. For you old schoolers out there Social Distortions Mommy's Little Monster was not that great a recording and Ness was a sloppy guitar player back then, but the album is a punk rock classic. I'm not saying this is a classic but it IS an album to be appreciated and well worth four stars.

2 out of 5 stars I'd hate to see real fake sound.......2002-03-21

Agent Orange's only live album "Real Live Sound" is a sign of the times it was recorded in. 1990. L.A. The Roxy....The first thing that came to my mind just by looking at the cover and liner notes was the pop sound of the moment in 1990...pop heavy metal. And guess what? This is Agent Orange doing its best impersonation of a pop metal act.
All the classic elements are here. A Drum solo. Cheerleading by Mike Palm. Half-assed guitar playing. What seems to be lots of fake sounding female screams. And an intro by a deep-voiced roadie. As a former recovering metal junkie...I was thinkin' gawd I'm not listening to W.A.S.P. Live in the Raw..Am I? But as I listened more and more I could tell that this was not the band that laid down one of the best albums I have ever heard at the beginning of the 80s. This was something KISS would do...lie down some tracks live and polish them up. The first studio album with warts and all was more "live" than this mess.

    5 out of 5 stars Now you know the.......2001-08-13

    Real Kids seriously kickarse. This one is a live recording from Sept. 1983. Hear how they shread in the 80's and even in '99 with the Down To You EP. Loud, snotty, power pop/punk masters they are. If you like the old Stones mixed with the above then you'll love this. Great recording asewll for a live album. Thank god Norton Records knows their stuff, bless em for amazing releases. With albums like Better Be Good and a couple others your set. In fact Better Be Good has been on a cassette in my car for like 3+ months stuck. I just cant eject it and love to drive to it. The Real Kids and the real deal...its amazing they never became big stars outside of the east coast. I love em, you will too...
