Combining longtime favorites with then-new material from
Low
,
Live at the Fillmore
proved beyond a doubt that
Testament
without
Alex Skolnick
was a more than viable proposition. The band sounds powerful and invigorated on the live material, while the three bonus studio cuts -- acoustic renditions of the ballads
"The Legacy,"
"Trail of Tears,"
and
"Return to Serenity"
-- shed new light on the compositions. ~ Steve Huey
