So they dropped a new live album (Yellow) last night. I was disappointed with the production value of the first two. I don't know much about music production, but the mix does not sound great. It sounds like it was just pulled straight from the soundboard and released. I was really hoping that by the third one they would have corrected it. Compared to Kicking Television or any live albums that other major bands release (check out one of the hundreds of live Phish releases), these sound terrible. Which is too bad because having seen Wilco 40+ times over the years I can safely say they are an incredible live band. Just wish it translated to the live records better.
