Well done live recording August 3, 2008
Charles - Music Lover (Phoenix, AZ, USA)
"Greatest Hits Live" is an exceptionally well-done live album. Carly Simon used to be afflicted by stage fright in the early years of her career, but there is no sign of that in her confident renderings of her best-known songs. Her performances are energetic and yet nuanced. She never misses a beat.
I'd actually like to give this album 4.5 stars if I could. The only thing that keeps it from being five stars is questionable mixing on a couple of tracks, especially the opener, "Nobody Does It Better." Simon's vocals are mixed real low in that track, but the production improves throughout the rest of the program.
Very enjoyable and highly recommended.

Every time I hear it, it reminds me of summer time.I think it's one of her best works,and have no complants whatsoever.

Sadly, this is the only live Carly album I know about, but it's a five star winner. Carly is said to suffer from severe stage fright; she has good company...Rosa Ponselle used to pray she'd get killed on the way to the Opera House [don't read more than I intend into the comparison; Carly is beautiful, fabulous, wonderful, and the dream girl of half the guys in the country; Rosa was merely the greatest singer that ever lived]. Some singers have "pirates" available, but I don't think Carly does.
The music here is well up to the standard we expect. She does here old standards to perfection, and puts a great spin on some newer music. "Two Hot Girls" is a treat. The recorded sound is all we could ask. Fabulous album....get it....you'll be glad you did.

J. Foti (Essex County, NJ)
This is without a doubt the most sought after CD's that carly has ever produced. This album which was recorded live on a jetty in Lobsterville, Martha's Vineyard in 1987 as an HBO special. The songs that were chosen for this album marked the diversity of Carly's tremendous musical career. The DVD that was produced of the concert is the most sought after DVD of Carly's career. And to be fortunate enough to attend this concert was in itself a life remembering experience.
