Review

Music Week (11/02/06, p.22) - "...casts the fragile, touching material in a new light... an essential album"

Uncut (p.98) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[B]eneath their limpid surfaces, Mark 'E' Everett's songs are volatile dollops of emotional explosive."

Product note

Personnel: Eels (vocals, guitar, piano, pump organ); Big Al (vocals, autoharp, melodica, piano, pump organ, upright bass); Julie (vocals, mandolin, violin, percussion); Paloma (vocals, violin, percussion); Heather (vocals, viola, percussion); Ana (vocals, cello, percussion).
Recording information: New York City, NY (06/25/2005).
Recorded live at New York City's Town Hall in late June 2005, this concert album finds singer/songwriter E (aka Mark Oliver Everett) leading the Eels through a 22-song set that spans the Los Angeles-based band's entire catalogue. For this outing, the group (essentially Everett and an ever-rotating cast of musicians) consists of a seven-piece ensemble that includes four string players. While drawing largely from the wonderfully ambitious double-album BLINKING LIGHTS AND OTHER REVELATIONS (highlights include a gorgeous rendition of "Trouble with Dreams" and a swooning, piano-driven take on "If You See Natalie"), this performance also presents older tunes (most notably an almost unrecognizable chamber-pop version of "Novocaine for the Soul") and excellent covers (an aching, string-laden rendition of Bob Dylan's "Girl From the North Country"). On a par with most of the Eels' studio work, LIVE AT TOWN HALL is sure to please fans of the eclectic and inventive act.

Album Description
