Recorded during their international 1990 tour,
Live Baby Live
is a lifeless live album.
INXS
sounds professional -- they never miss a note -- and that's part of the problem. All of the performances sound like the studio versions, stripped of their excitement and savvy productions, which were essential factors in making the songs hit singles. Consequently, the album is a thoroughly unengaging affair and the worst record
have recorded. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
