5 stars Only 66 ratings? There are few live albums that enter the pure anthology of rock music like Some Enchanted Evening. Among such, in my opinion, one should consider Frampton Comes Live, Solar Music Live and Kraan Live. The reason this album deserves all praise is that each song, except for Don't Fear The Reaper, is far more inspiring and better played than their studio versions, especially RU Ready 2 Rock and Astronomy. I think that BOC here was at their inspirational peak and that they corrected certain weaknesses present on their previous live effort. Donald Roeser's contribution here is brilliant, and with his solo at Astronomy he put a permanent seal on BOC creativity and their outstanding role in what could be defined as an intellectual hard rock. Certainly the best album the band recorded ever.
