After having been released in a couple different configurations (not counting bootlegs), 's performance at the Isle of Wight Festival has been released yet again, and it's a bit of a mixed bag. is plagued by equipment problems and audience expectations, and the entire festival had degenerated into something of a debacle by the time hit the stage as headliner. There is a loose, at times sloppy, feel to the proceedings, with being pretty casual with the lyrics, particularly in had long since tired of playing his smash hits, even commenting at one point, "Y'all want to hear all those old songs, man? Damn, man. We're just trying to get some other things together." The problem was that much of the new material was under-rehearsed for a live setting, giving some of the newer songs like more of a jam feel. In addition, 's amplifiers are picking up transmissions from radio and security personnel throughout the show, which actually works well on but is distracting elsewhere. That being said, collectors will still be happy with this release. The sound is fantastic, and the packaging and booklet are filled with great photos. 's guitar playing is superb in spots, and his wonderful sense of humor is on display throughout. The fact is that died way too early, so any great-sounding, even mediocre shows will still be celebrated by fans for the moments of brilliance they contain. is still the first pick for live , but those who crave more will be quite pleased with . ~ Sean Westergaard
