  If you have never been to a Ramble, this CD is a must-have!
Ramble On! (5/5) Oct 24, 2008 Patrick On CA
  Have been to 2 Rambles in Woodstock and booked for another. This is about as close as it gets. Have this CD in the car and have my very own version of a Ramble On the Road!
Great sound from a great band, with Levon in fine voice and an awesome band, with Larry, Teresa, Amy and a horn section that blows the doors off. A "Rock of Ages" for 2008.
Jubilation (5/5) Apr 3, 2009 Scott Hieber NJ US
  What a terrific band with all the voices and instruments working so tightly together and still keeping the fresh, jsut friends flavor. And oh what the brass section does to heighten all these tunes.

An eclectic blend of all the kinds of music that Levon loves, country, blues, rhythm & blues. . . -- a real tree with roots .

Hard to say who has more fun at Levon helm concerts, the audience or Levon. It's a joy to hear the band and joy to what him having fun up there on stage. This CD is great capture of the recent concerts. And the sound/recording quality is very good, although I'd listen to it if it was pressed on graham crackers.
This IS Levon Helm at his BEST (5/5) Aug 28, 2009 Joe Fox Buffalo NY US
  Except for one non Levon female vocal, I really love this CD. Levon is my favorite R 'n R drummer and has been for some 40 odd years!
THANKS! (4/5) Oct 14, 2008 CLARENCE B. HENRY, M.D. CLAVERACK NY US
  Having attended 4% of the !st 100 Rambles, Gill Farm in '07, and Woodstock Playhouse in '06 and '08; I had asked on multiple occasions about songs on this new album.
I look forward to purchasing it at the 11/22/08 Ramble!! THANKS.

  This is a GREAT show to hear!
The best live Ramble recording available (5/5) Oct 25, 2008 Mark lavine Cooperstown NY US
  Having heard this show on the live webcast, it was a pleasure to get my own copy. Great sound and great performances by all the usual suspects. Little Sammy and Sam Bush deserve special mention, now we can Ramble on the road while driving to the Ramble at Levon's. Recordings of the shows at the Barn would sell like hotcakes, so to speak, and we all would want as many as were released since each Ramble has different guests, songs etc. For now, though, this recording is as good it gets.
Needed a New Live Album (5/5) Oct 14, 2008 Carmen and Lisa Biller Detroit MI US
  We've been to 3 Rambles in the past 3 years. It's nice to have a Live album out since we've been going. "Long Black Veil" is a SUPERB take on a great old Band song. What a great idea to add a female vocal. I always love the way Levon arranges Atlantic City. All you have to do is listen to the unique hit of the snare or the lively sound of his voice to know he's having A LOT of fun!
LIKE A LARGE PLATE... (5/5) Apr 21, 2009 Pete Colgan Freeport NY US
  like a large plate of your favorite hors d'oeuvres.... highly recomended....
Legend! (5/5) Nov 29, 2008 Bill Fleming Greensboro NC US
  I was at this show and had no idea that it had been released on cd until now!!! This was an awesome show and Levon was in rare form! I had the great pleasure of meeting him after the show and he signed my copy of "Modern Drummer" magazine in which he had recently appeared on the cover of. It is truly an early Christmas with the find.....!
