Essentially a live greatest-hits package, 'Live' Trucker, recorded before several different Detroit-area crowds, reminds us not only that Kid has long been an entertainer first and songwriter second but that he can surprise even the most jaded listener at the most unexpected moment. He works the urban hillbilly angle to the hilt, gives shouts out to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Cobo Hall and offers hope to disenfranchised kids in crummy apartment complexes and trailer parks from sea to shining sea via "Rock 'n' Roll Pain Train" and "American Bad Ass." Although the last name is Rock, Kid's never been afraid of letting a little bit of honky tonk piano into the mix or blending classic southern soul and the heaviest of rap 'n' roll as he does in "Early Mornin' Stoned Pimp." He's also not opposed to revealing his deep and apparently authentic affinity for country, something he does during the touching "Picture" with his Nashville counterpart Gretchen Wilson. Ultimately, 'Live' Trucker rises above the usual stopgap status of live and greatest hits recordings and stands tall, a statue of redneck rebellion, and reveals that Kid Rock's just getting started. --Jedd Beaudoin

- Just a comment on the font/cover art
Just had to insert this comment here. I am not a huge kid rock fan, (although I do enjoy listening to him occasionally), so this is not a review (in the positive nor negative) about his music. I just wanted to know if anyone else noticed that his cover art looks darn near exactly like a number of Bob Seger's albums. (NOTE---The Live Bullet album especially.) I do know that Kid is a big Seger fan (he sang a great duet on "real mean bottle" with Bob Seger on the "face the promise" album, and perhaps ... Read More

- great!
Saw Kid Rock Live -He is amazing. this album lets you "be" at his concert without being there, its simply Great!!

Rating:

- Good but no classic
If you want a decent collection of Kid Rock tracks then this is a good start, but I prefer live recordings to add a bit extra - some of improvisation, maybe a few long solos. This is just a sample of his CD tracks performed in front of a crowd, so if you have all the CDs I'd give it a miss. This adds nothing.

- cool live cd
cool live cd but i wish it was one show from detroit but he had to have joe c on there but one show would have been cool.

- If you like Kid Rock....
...you'll like him even more after this CD. I can't believe how cheap it is for two discs. He sounds even better live. It makes you wish you were there.
A must have if you're a fan at all.
