Subject: An Out of Body Experience I got turned on to this recording by a friend who eats, sleeps and breathes the shows here on the archive. He has been coaxing me to check it out for several months now -- and after using it to fuel an all nighter, I can see why! Incredible stuff, and an awesome chronicle of a band I will be seeking out more in the future! Cheers! - March 28, 2007An Out of Body Experience

Subject: Simply Fantastic While I am from Tucson, having spent some 25 years of my life there, and had heard of Calexico and how great they were countless times since around 1998ish or so, this show on the archive, believe it or not, was my first taste of this incredible band. Without being redundant in terms of all the other fantastic reviews this show has received, I highly recommend this one, folks. My favorite is the Fatal Spring > Close Behind. I think I have listened to that combo on repeat on and off consistently for the past week and a half. Download this one. Now. - February 1, 2006Simply Fantastic

Reviewer: DanInTanzania - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - January 1, 2006

Subject: Can't get any better than this This show is an absolute MUST HAVE for users of this amazing site. My family (consisting of 1 dead-head, one hip-hop fan, and one who likes commercial pop music) all love this recording and haven't listened to anything else for about a week now. If you liked the sound track for the film Desperado, this has great cross over appeal, good beats, and fantastic sound quality--try it out or forever hold your peace. - January 1, 2006Can't get any better than this

Reviewer: derkraken - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - October 11, 2005

Subject: Excellent Thought I would check them out after vaguely recalling Crystal Frontier from Jon Peel show on BBC some years back. Cannot praise the show and the crystal clear recording enough. Even perseverd through this tedious registration procedure to say so. For me track 10 was a highlight but I can't fast forward through any of it. Definitely 5 stars. - October 11, 2005Excellent

Reviewer: zsazs - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - September 23, 2005

Subject: Fantastic performance Thanks to the recordings here on the Archive and Calexico's offical live DVD, I've come to appreciate Calexico's live shows much more than their studio albums. This show is by far my favorite. The performances of everyone and especially Joey's vocals eclipse that of other live Calexico recordings I've heard, including the DVD. The audio quality is top notch. Thanks to the band and Jim Blackwood for making this performance available. - September 23, 2005Fantastic performance

Reviewer: Exit Flagger - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - August 21, 2005

Subject: An Outstanding Performance and Top Notch Recording Before I heard this performance I was a peripheral fan of Calexico. I kinda liked their album "The Blacklight", but thought their most recent album "Feast of Wire" was a bit lifeless. The reccomendations for this show were glowing, so I thought I'd give it a try. WOAH! This is great stuff! A truly spirited performance. The vocals are SO much stronger than the album and the playing has such a fiery spark. I am not exaggerating when I say I have listened to this performance at least 50 times in the last 6 months. I cant get enough of it. The quality of the recording is astounding. It is rich with subtlety and detail. Worthy of official live album release.

What more can I say? Even if you only like this band a little bit, DOWNLOAD IT!!! - August 21, 2005An Outstanding Performance and Top Notch Recording

Reviewer: getlisted - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - July 6, 2005

Subject: Will be Considered a Classic The whole run of April 2003 shows in Europe by Calexico are great. This one, in particular, has a clean balance courtesy of Blackwood, and the musicians (the real stars) hit nary a wrong note. Joey in particular has good lungs on this one.



Highlights are "Across the Wire," "Close Behind," and "Guero Canelo".



Download and enjoy. - July 6, 2005Will be Considered a Classic

Reviewer: ianridd - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - June 22, 2005

Subject: This is an AWESOME SHOW! I have seen them play live several times. Their studio albums are fantastic, mind-expanding, genre-bending experiences (oh yeah, and his lyrics are among the best). But LIVE they take on a whole new dimension. Jazz... mariachi... pop... Spaghetti Western soundtrack... folk... country... all swirled together. This show displays that perfectly. And the sound quality is excellent.



This concert is such a treat. I am so delighted to own a LIVE calexico show. Thanks to the taper. Thanks to the archive! - June 22, 2005This is an AWESOME SHOW!

Subject: great show If you're not familiar with Calexico, this is a great place to start. It's like south-west (with an emphasis on the mariachi) post-modern, psychedelic folk-rock.



This show has an excellent performance, song selection and sound quality. Knowing how rare live Calexico shows are, it makes this even more precious jedimastermojave -- December 4, 2004great show

Subject: Wow! Being from Arizona, this one holds a special place for me. Memories of home while living away. This is a terrific recording. As previously stated, the setlist is great, featuring a wide range from their releases. The sound is top-notch as well. Crystal clear but with the added "ambience' of an AUD recording. I can't recommend this show enough! If you've never heard Calexico before, this is a great place to start. - November 3, 2004Wow!

Reviewer: Patrik Nilsson - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - July 18, 2004

Subject: Perfect! I was lucky enough to attend this show, and I have previously enjoyed a shorter version of this recording that was broadcast by P3 Live in Sweden.

This full version is even better in every aspect though.

Thank you P3, Jim and Calexico for making this available. It's perfect!



Patrik - July 18, 2004Perfect!

Reviewer: block dog - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - July 18, 2004

Subject: Excellent !!! This is what a "matrix" recording should sound like. For my taste most matrix recordings wind up with a little too much audience and not enough SBD.

The performance on this show is top notch showing Calexico at the top of their game.

The quality of this show would be comparable to an official release. (IMHO)

If you are a fan you will love this recording and if you are not, you will be. Check it out.

Calexico is one of the most genuine and creative acts to creep onto my radar screen in a long time.

Thanks to P3 Live for providing the source and thanks to Jim & the band for setting this show free.



block - July 18, 2004Excellent !!!
