Review by Winton Wedderburn

Live At The Boston Tea Party August 1969 is a phenomenal album by the English progressive rock band Colosseum. Recorded during their North American tour, the album captures the band's electrifying performance at the Boston Tea Party on August 23, 1969.

The album features some of Colosseum's most iconic tracks, including "Walking In The Park," "The Machine Demands A Sacrifice," and "Elegy." The band's virtuosic musicianship is on full display, with stunning solos by saxophonist Dick Heckstall-Smith, keyboardist Dave Greenslade, and guitarist James Litherland.

The live recording adds an extra dimension to the music, with the audience's enthusiastic response adding to the energy of the performance. The sound quality is excellent, capturing the full range of the band's dynamic sound.
