Despite being a veteran act that racked up a healthy amount of "road miles" over the years, as of the late '90s, the post- lineup had yet to issue a live set. With a title such as , you'd think fans would finally be getting their wish (also since the well-known lineup had just reunited). But the title turned out to be misleading, as the album is comprised of nine new studio tracks (one being a cover -- 's ), as well as six re-recordings of early hits. While longtime fans will be overjoyed to see bassist back in the group's ranks, there's no hiding the fact that the material here isn't nearly close to what made such a party favorite back in 1983. Few riffs are memorable, and the lyrics, well, a sample from goes something like this -- "Slam dunk, way to go, what do you say, let's !" And as far as the re-recorded tracks, nothing comes close to topping the stronger original versions (singer 's vocals sound especially strained on quite a few of these selections). Interestingly, the second studio album that the reunited / lineup recorded, 2001's , contained much stronger material. ~ Greg Prato
