Live! Live! Live! (1988)
Review by Karl Watson

This is an excellent recording of the band in top form. Tommy Mandel joined the live band this year, meaning this is the beginning of the ultimate Bryan Adams band. The only problem I have with the Into The Fire tour, is BA and the band's performance is in a sort of in between stage. They've lost the youthful, jumping around the stage energy of the previous tours (which is fair enough), but they haven't quite yet adopted the having-a-laugh attitude that you really began to notice on the Waking Up The Neighbours tour, and has stayed ever since.

Still, this is fantastic concert and is an excellent representation of the live show at that time. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that it doesn't feature the entire show. Harsh maybe, but I've got to really love it for it to receive 5.
