Despite the horrendous cover, The Raspberries "Pop Art Live" is a welcome addition to the catalog. I guess having an album that smelled like a Raspberry was kinda of pop art eh? Those poofy hair cuts certainly were not!! This was the first show of the reunion tour. Obviously, "Sunset Strip" is a better document but the song selection here is interesting....Choir songs and Beatle covers. Eric Carmen sounds a bit hoarse at times but overall "the overdub" musicians help them deliver power pop nirvana. Now I know why I used to feel so "fucking optimistic".
