Editorial Review: Album Description: Two CD set featuring the first official release of this legendary live performance, recorded in Maryland in 1979. The New Barbarians were a live-only band consisting of Rolling Stones members Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, Jazz great Stanley Clarke, former Faces/Small Faces keyboardist Ian McLagan, Bobby Keys and Ziggaboo Modeliste. 20 tracks including 'Sweet Little Rock 'N Roller', 'Love In Vain', 'Let's Go Steady', 'Before They Make Me Run', 'Jumping Jack Flash', 'Seven Days' and more. Includes an eight page full color booklet with extensive liner notes. Released on Ron Wood's Wooden Records label. 2006. Amazon.com: Addled, staggering, bleary-eyed, wired: that's how Buried Alive: New Barbariand Live in Marylan sounds. It's the band's charm, the reason this recoding has been long sought in bootleg form. And the irony of the New Barbarians' 1979 tour should be lost on no one. Keith Richards's sentence for his 1977 heroin and cocaine bust in Toronto was two days of charity work. What'd he do? He got his guitar-slinging partner from the Rolling Stones, Ronnie Wood, to bring this ad hoc band--boasting himself and Richards on guitars, Ziggy Modeliste on drums, Ian McLagan on keys, and Stanley Clarke on bass--to play two dates for the Canadian Institute for the Blind. Describing how the band warmed up for the tour, the unnamed liner notician for this long-sought set writes that "[m]ost days rehearsals went on until the drugs ran out." So penance for the drug bust came in the form of a gig by a band who rehearsed until they couldn't get high anymore. As for the New Barbarians' tunes, they're ramshackle and shouted and bellowed and brilliant. The sound on these discs is remarkable, blurry only to the point you'd expect, given the sodden nature of the band members. --Andrew Bartlett Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - I was buried alive that nite!Besides the vocals being somewhat rough,and the music a little raw,the show was great that nite,I realy enjoyed hearing this music from that show,just because I was there. Rating:  - brings back memoriesOK, I confess, I don't have this CD... yet. I live in a cave so I had not heard this was issued on a real CD label, not bootleg. The occasion of Return to Forever (ie Stanley Clarke) doing a reunion tour this summmer got me to thinking of my old fusion days..... I saw the New Barbarians in Atlanta GA at the old Omni. One other reviewer states the shows were half-filled. Not so in Atlanta. Sold out to the top row in the back. It was the first (and only) show for which I camped out overnight for tickets. Me and my roommate got floor seats about 1/2 way back. Wild show. We stood on our chairs the whole time. The show was opened by Piano Red, a very elderly, blind, African-american blues musician who played solo piano, and was rumored ... Read More: Rating:  - When The Music's OverOn stage with a music stand, sheets of music, cigarettes and a guitar, Ronnie Wood and friends - Keith Richards (g), Stanley Clarke (b), Ian McLagan (key), Bobby Keys (sax) and Ziggy Modeliste (d) - partied their way across North America in 1979, playing two concerts in Canada and 18 in the U.S., along with opening for Led Zeppelin at the Knebworth Festival - to support Wood's solo album, Gimme Some Neck. And this 2-CD set typified the oftentimes very sloppy work of a super group led by Woods - New Barbarians - playing the role of arena rock mega-stars. With promotional ads promising the possibility of "special guests" to boost tepid ticket sales, the majority of the concerts were played in front of half-filled - or less - arenas. ... Read More: Rating: - A glorious trainwreckThis review is tough express. I'm not sure of the source tape quality etc so I have heard better mixes and releases of far better quality. Ronnie and Keith did sound ripped, but it was a time of rock and roll excess. Are there missed notes and chords, is it sloppy? YES. But man it rocks it has a certain dirty groove and energy that will make you turn up the volume and stomp. Pure rock and roll sometimes is not pretty and this is a fine example. If you love your rock down and dirty or better stated "solid garage rock" This will put a smile on your face. If you love perfection all the way around pass on it. I love the music but to keep it real I give it 3 stars for the flaws....Yes it's glorious trainwreck. Rating: - Sloppy SetI bought this one for some of the live releases that were not available elsewhere. It is what it was, a sloppy, jam with a few members of the Stones, trying to pay back for Keith's drug offense. I really have to be in the mood for this one cover to cover. |
