Yesterday and Today Live
Review by: Jim Harrison
Album Rating: 8.5
Y&T will release their Expanded Edition of their landmark live release of Yesterday and Today Live album on June 9, 2023 through Metal Blade Records.
A quick history lesson,Y&T (originally know as (Yesterday and Today) hail from Oakland, California started in 1972 and quickly became a force to be reckoned with bringing to the forefront a traditional heavy metal sound, and known for their live performances and superb sound.
Yesterday and Today Live (Expanded Edition) was recorded on December 29 & 31, 1990 at the San Jose Cabaret and encompasses many of their hits up to that date of time which covered nine studio albums. The expansion is the addition of tracks “Earth Shaker” from their first album with a massive sound and is great live and “Rescue Me” that finishes the album with great crowd participation singing all words. These tracks make the live experience better and I always wanted this album to be longer.
This will be a great live album addition to any metal collection.
