“The Long Surrender” is a decent, but not great album, certainly not in comparison to truly classic OtR albums like “Ohio” and “Films for “Radio” (or “Eve”, if you really wanna go ‘classic’). I enjoy even “The Trumpet Child” more than TLS.
That said, there is no question that the TLS songs sound stronger live than they do on the CD.
OtR is truly one of Cincinnati’s main musical ambassadors.
