Even if you count one track twice I still make that 17 tracks confuse

Still well worth under a tenner though, especially if not already an owner of the double CDs. I assume the sound problems with Rewind (recording not live) were addressed for them to be included.

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

They improved the rewind ones. Just hope they included the improved version rather than the slow dreadful version

Already ordered as soon as I got email from concert live so looking forward to it and will let all on forum know what it's like regards mike

Only well worth under a tenner if well under a tenner. The point of a live CD/LP is that it is more or less the show often with the in-between bits. This will mix the songs, so there won't be proper continuity. Which would make the originals better. So why would you get this? I got the two live albums from Concert Live and they are just CD-R, which makes me question the limited availability of the CD. They did something similar with Franz Ferdinand and said they had just five copies left the other day in an email. Didn't stop me adding 10 to my basket. For all I know they can just burn as many as they like. So only limit is demand.

Still think good value & as I am housebound & not able to get to any rats concerts this is the next best thing

Is that relevant? Sorry you are housebound, but just listen to the other CDs with the concert in the right order. That is more the next best thing.

Who is Ivan? What has he got to do with it?

Mike menzies · V Deep

I still play rats on vinyl as I have a good collection of their singles lps etc it is better than sitting g staring at either tv or computer or 4 Walls

You don't have to justify it to anyone Mike, least of all die-hard Rats fans on here.

Enjoy it as I hope I will when mine arrives.

Seems some editing has taken place on this thread as one of Mike's posts only appears as a quote in one of Jules' posts.

What can it mean?

Could be wishful thinking, but I did see that band post that they were supporting the Rats at a few gigs.

Mike menzies · V Deep

Hope this is still coming out as a friend ordered one last week and later got email saying not available so I hope ours are still ok

Funny I mentioned it:
Dear Valued Customer,

We are writing to update you on your current order with Concert Live.

We are experiencing a small delay with our supplier who is producing the Greatest Live hits albums on our behalf.

To explain further, the first copies of the album that we received through were not up to the usual standard that our customers would expect and given the limited and high quality nature of this product, we want to make sure that it is 100% right before dispatching it to you.

We have expressed our concern to the supplier and have demanded that we have the finished article with us by Wednesday of next week to allow us to dispatch all orders by Thursday at very latest.

We apologise for the on-going delay and thank you for your patience in waiting for this product which we assure you will be absolutely worth the wait.

They must be bad if they're not up to the standard of the original rewind ones.

Mike menzies · V Deep

Jules atleastbyou got a reply I've had to send about 5 emails and finally told on order nothing else although when first ordered told I was first in order so a bit peeved spoke to a cherish mengel I think

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Ihadnt emailed them at all to chase.

Tango · In the Long Grass

It astounds me that ConcertLive get any custom anymore. I've tried to order with them 3 times and only once have I received a product, and even that took months of badgering.

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Think I'll not bother in future with them. They are pretty useless. I made several complaints about the Rewind ones and it took ages. Then it was only resolved because I copied in some contact I had with BG (can't remember who it was, some promoter who asking us to promote them). As far as I know they didn't email everyone to let them have the 'improved' version.

Derek The Dane · V Deep

I got the same email about the delay.They are quite useless.

Mike menzies · V Deep

I phoned them today and then finally got an email from cherish mental saying the here is a delay and should be next week was annoyed I had to contact them to find out what's going on. But looks like sorted will let forum know when I get ( if I get) cd

Mike menzies · V Deep

Misspelled ladies name should've been mengel not mental this auto text is annoying incidentally has yeh definitely by Bob ever been on any album as I have all bobs & not on any not even box set of gsoi so just wondered

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Have you got the one where duets on a couple of tracks with Jools Holland. It's Jools Holland album.

Mike menzies · V Deep

No it's just him I think it was a promo version from america

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

Still No joy here?

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Nothing here.

Mike menzies · V Deep

Same here told via email a couple of days ago that it should be Thursday this week ain't holding my breath though ironically had separate email and it is listed in their range as available so work that one out,!!!

Mike menzies · V Deep

No sign today but ironically an email telling me of their products & Lo & behold it is listed as available so might phone them Friday and find out ( yeh right ) what's happening

suss · House on Fire

In fairness the email does suggest despatch Thursday (today). I'd leave it to Monday before getting onto them. Seems like a quality control thing. I'd rather that than get inferior goods quickly

True. As long as they do send them. Their previous record has not been good in different ways. Makes you feel a bit untrustimg of them. smile

Mike menzies · V Deep

Just had email from them saying dispatching today so hopefully sat/ Monday might get it then

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Same here.

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

Same here

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

This is just a rip of from the two live cds that came out in 2013. Could have made this cd up myself

suss · House on Fire

There are a few tracks from the Rewind gig that weren't on the previous CDs, but take your point.

oh yes, completely. Still it's arrived.

Mike menzies · V Deep

Still great though and keeps me going a it longer hopefully the new album will be out this year ( wishful thinking I know) but still living in hope

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

Agree with you here. And yes a new album would be nice even if it's to show the fans that have been turning up at the gigs from they got back together again how great full they are. Anyway will be giving this new live cd a wee spin tonight with a few beers. Enjoy all of you who got ur copy today

Your right At the end of the day it's another rats album. And that's what it's all about for most of us anyway

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

I've not listened yet, but hear the quality is poor. A bit of an amateurish outfit this concert live.

Mike menzies · V Deep

Just listening to this album now quality seems ok not a bad little collection of songs hope they play some later stuff so time and putitout on cd live recordings

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

I will listen for myself. If i am not impressed, I will complain again. I don't think I will buy from them again in too much of a hurry.

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

It's the Rewind ones that are dreadful. They've put the original dodgy slow ones on there. They are dire! the rest are OK.

Mike menzies · V Deep

I was going to say the rewind seem a bit slow but still it's better than not at all nothing at all etc

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

In some places you cannot recognise Bob's voice.

Mike menzies · V Deep

My copy seems fine what I've played so far ( halfway through disc 1). I'm happy that I've got something to play though

Mike menzies · V Deep

Just finished listening Mary & lookin after no1 bit slow all others ok. Rat trap from vicar street not rewind as inlay but still enjoying it am just gonna listen to how to compose songs. By Bob

Mike menzies · V Deep

I see someone's already stuck live cd on eBay for£10 you can still get it from concert live for£5

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

Not great this greatest hits. Poor sound It's the same with the Bob Geldof Live target cd Again poor sound. The two live cds that came out in 2013 are hard to beat sound great songs great Rats on top form.

Mike menzies · V Deep

I found that my copy of live target was good so whether this is a one off. I don't know all I know is I'm pleased with both discs

Derek The Dane · V Deep

I ordered 2 of these cds and yes I got 2 cds.One of them has the same cd in it(disc one) and the sound quality of the Rewind shows are awful.Lookin After No1 is so slow it is painful,how did this get past control?.Has anyone complained to concertlive or what ever these ****s are called.

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Not yet Derek. I will do. Although they are useless and don't respond. The more complaints the better though.
