Hollywood metal icons L.A. Guns recorded live at the Orpheum Theatre in Boston on the 4th of November 1989. Back in the day, LA Guns was a legendary group featuring many of the Sunset Strip’s finest players. Fronted by British vocalist Phil Lewis, formerly of Girl and Tormé, and also showcasing the superb guitar showmanship of Tracii Guns, this was a band that scored their share of MTV hits and held the attention of many a rocker over the course of the years. Even with the changing of the music industry following the advent of grunge and alternative rock, the band persevered in many different incarnations. The band had just released their second (and arguably finest) record, Cocked And Loaded. The band puts on a high-energy show performing their best tunes at the peak of their career, and right from the first few seconds of the album, it is clear Phil Lewis is in good spirits with a sense of humor on display. The sound quality throughout is equally impressive and sounds like a true soundboard recording, not a bootleg or anything of the sort. The tracklist also deserves praise. The band plays most of the big hits from this era, but also pulls out several deep tracks and even a few unexpected surprises, like a cover of Montrose’s Rock Candy. Classics from the first two albums get the live treatment in fine form, and the album will definitely fill the needs of any fan of vintage LA Guns
