    2 out of 5 stars MC 5 - 'Motor City Is Burning' (Castle).......2006-05-30

    Sixteen track compilation of poor-sounding bootlegged material that's been obviously pulled from various MC 5 previous releases,like the Sturgis Armoury in Michigan for one.QUESTION:where exactly did the taper of 'some' of these tunes sit during the actual performance,in the stall in the men's room?I mean,come on!I believe I even heard some problems with the tape speed.I've heard worse,but not MUCH worse.I suppose that after a few listens,you COULD grow to accept this CD as a hard-to-find audio treasure,IF you're an MC 5 completist.Good song selection though,like the opener "Kick Out The Jams","Revolutionary Blues","Human Being Lawnmower",my all time MC 5 favorite "Looking At You" and "Black To Comm".You've been warned.

    1 out of 5 stars Terrible Sound............2005-03-21

    The sound quality here renders this album unlistenable to even the most devout MC5 fan. I strongly advise saving your cash here and spending your hard earned money on the new "Purity, Accuracy" box set. You can get it here on zShops for almost half off the list and it is worth every single cent.

    3 out of 5 stars All right! MC5! . . . . Hey, that's not cool........2003-07-13

    I have a watch. It's a Casio and it has a calculator and a voice recorder in it. It's a cool watch; it records stuff and you can play it back, like funny things friends said when they were drunk or bad lines from a movie--but the sound quality is crap. But what do you expect? It's on a freaking watch.

    This live MC5 album sounds like it was recorded on my watch. It's bad. Of course, it's cool because it's MC5, but the quality is h-o-r-r-i-b-l-e. I didn't think they were allowed to release something that sounded this bad.

    2 out of 5 stars The MC5 through a long, noisy tunnel.......2000-08-17

    "Archive" releases are a double-edged sword. Yeah, it's cool to get a live cd of the 5, but damn, this sounds like it was recorded with a boombox OUTSIDE of the venue where the 5 were kickin' 'em out, dig? Tape speed is messed up, too, on some tracks Tyner sounds about 300 pounds heavier than he did normally. Killer version of "Shakin' Street" is a saving grace, but unless you're a FANATIC, avoid this at all costs. You want a killer live MC5 recording, pick up Thunder Express (live in the studio, tight as hell).

      4 out of 5 stars Great band, great music, horrible recording!.......2004-08-01

      Stop! Buy one of the studio recordings, especially if this is your first MC5 album. The music is great, it's just that this CD is a live recording and is of VERY poor quality (even by '60s live recording standards). If it is from the soundboard someone needed to take lessons from the Grateful Dead bootleggers.

      Minus one star for the poor sound quality.
