Re: All Jacked Up: 2CD compilation of the Jack years
I'm so worn out on "Alive" that normally when I hear it, my eyes glaze over and I tune out. But I've listened to this version of it so many times this past month. Jack is killing it.
By the sounds of it, Melbourne '95 was a hell of a show.

Re: All Jacked Up: 2CD compilation of the Jack years
It sounds stupid because it's basically the original version, but that's exactly how I felt seeing it played live at The R&R Hall of Fame induction. It oddly felt like a brand new song that night. A different drummer really makes a huge difference.Farmer John wrote:I'm so worn out on "Alive" that normally when I hear it, my eyes glaze over and I tune out.

I know what you mean. I wasn't there, but I listened to that version a lot around that time and felt reinvigorated with the song.durdencommatyler wrote:It sounds stupid because it's basically the original version, but that's exactly how I felt seeing it played live at The R&R Hall of Fame induction.

I also love hearing Jack play "Smile".
A drummer could describe it better, but there's something about his loose shuffle that's so great (and so much better than the way Matt plays it).

Re: All Jacked Up: 2CD compilation of the Jack years
y'all are amazing, thank you! i've listened to this twice now and it's so nice to have some of these songs with jack. i didn't have a version of "smile" with jack, so that was probably the highlight for me. this also made me appreciate matt a little more. i mean, my preferred pj drummer is jack for sure, but there are a handful of songs where i like matt better. most is the non jack stuff like why go, go, even flow, whipping. i love the way even flow in particular sounds from the '98 leg of the tour with matt.

Re: All Jacked Up: 2CD compilation of the Jack years
I'm away for work this week, Han Solo. Lucky for me my MiL has a holiday home up here in Broome so I have that to myself.
Sitting outside on a 27 degree night (that's 81 for y'all farenheiters) on beer number 3, having just cooked myself a beautiful eye fillet on the BBQ.
This is proving to be the perfect soundtrack.
Thanks again for all you gents do.

Re: All Jacked Up: 2CD compilation of the Jack years
Belated thank you for this. Gonna start listening tonight. I’ve seen them play w/ Jack 3 times but all were abbreviated performances. Bridge school ‘94, Golden Gate Park ‘95 and Irvine ‘03. Other than that I haven’t really spent much time listening to live Jack shows. Really looking forward to hearing these.
