After Live At The Triple Door and Live At The New Orleans Rhede in 2007, the American guitar magician completes the threesome with this album. A concert recording can hardly be published any more up-to-date, because the CD was already available for sale for the 2008 autumn tour. These in-house productions have increased demand and corresponding sales. So what advantages does this disc offer?
On the one hand it was recorded as a trio. Turner teasingly refers to his two backing musicians as the 'Trouble Twins', meaning bassist Jimmy Trujillo and Recard 'Scotty' Rivera on drums.
On the other hand, there are three of the six songs that have not yet been featured on any studio album: "Blues Fall Down Like Rain", "Mr. Blues" and "My Soul's On Fire". Turner trademarks that are always popular are of course also present. An almost quarter-hour "Rise", seven and a half minutes "So Many Roads" and the overly long "Privileged Life". So the numbers aren't made out of cardboard and so the playing time increases to an enjoyable 56 minutes. Eddie Turner accompanied by a trio is something special. The intensity of his guitar processing comes into its own in every track. This is how it crystallizes what the devil boy does on the guitar and he can rely on a crisp rhythm section on his instrumental excursions. Jimmy Truijllo has been his regular bass player for a long time and the drummer also makes for joy in front of the speakers with his differentiated drumming. Every fan of this genre wishes for a statement like the one made in the first track of the record: "Blues Fall Down Like Rain". Turner sings the lyrics almost in an incantation, and the repetitive sequence of tones from the guitar and bass have a hypnotic character. This is how you convert a title line to music. Up to a break and what then rains down on the listener is a bottleneck storm, for which you don't need any protection. Trujillo and Rivera continue to stoically enchant and Turner, after a long slide excursion, reports back on the ground of the song topic. One can already be curious about the studio version of the composition. It should be clear that you can already hear a more detailed version here. In "Rise" Trujillo is almost three minutes solo on his five-sided work machine and his rhythm buddy brings it to just under one and a half minutes. It feels like going it alone is longer...Resistance is useless against "Privileged Life". If the song doesn't get you going, then I don't know what will. Compared to the "... Triple Door" edition, the thing has grown by another 2 minutes. Where are they? Clearly, Turner can't help it and so to speak blisters on his fingers. An individual performance that can hardly be surpassed in terms of furiosity, until he gently lands again on the so catchy sequence of notes. "Mr. Blues" is another new track and it starts off very subdued. Bass and drums only set a very small beat and then this piece of 12 bars rises to the top with a great solo by the guitarist, who is almost exclusively active at the upper end of the fretboard. Partly breathed singing without 6-string. It goes on quietly, Turner only plays a few, but great licks and again and again you think: Here we go! But it doesn't get to that point of eruption and that's exactly why there's a lot of tension in the piece. Things get quieter, Rivera and Trujillo say goodbye and Turner finishes the act all by himself. A gem of live music. With "My Soul's On Fire" the hut burns again, even if there is a relaxed interlude in it. This track is the best Blues Rock with a not to be scoffed at portion of what was also good in the 70's. All in all, this live fare cannot be dismissed from the edge of the table and, like the two previous in-house productions, meets the quality standard of an excellent concert insight.(https://www.rocktimes.info/Archiv/gesamt/t/eddie_turner/live_at_heritage.html)
