What's the hipster opinion on the RNRAnimal/live sets these days, I remember them being universally loathed back in the 7os then gaing some kudos in the 80s as metal went bouffant and they were held up as shining examples of good guitar rock along with The Man Who Sold The World , before returning to everything bad about Lou & how he ruined the Velvet Legacy corner again.It must surely have returned to the essential list by now


I loved R&R Animal back then. Live not so much. Felt like a rip-off / cash-in release even then.

The guitars sound great and Lou is great too where no real singing is involved. The version of Heroin is genius. The songs where he should be crooning are horrible vocally but convincing musically.
