Label : Sony
Customer Review :
Truth be told, since the blunted triumphs of their eponymous debut and 1993’s
Black Sunday, Cypress Hill have been in a steady creative tailspin. Tellingly,
on this live disc, recorded at the legendary San Francisco venue, it’s the trio’s
genuinely entertaining performances of early material such as "Real Estate"
and "How I Could Just Kill a Man" that stand out. But the percussive
accompaniment and fuzzy guitars the group draft to dress up the rest of their
material simply make the proceedings repetitive and tiresome and obscure B-Real’s
distinctive whine and Muggs’s production—the group’s two greatest assets. Thankfully,
there is a return to their most potent material toward the end, but it doesn’t
save this release from being a cursory footnote in their discography. For completists
only.
