It only took four decades, but like a fine Chardonnay, time made it just parfait. Canadian legends CONEY HATCH’s first official live album, “Live at the El Mocambo“, recorded back in October 2020 at the legendary El Mocambo is, in a word: perfect.
First, let’s define “perfect”.
“Perfect” doesn’t mean “exactly like the studio versions”. Not when we’re talking about live albums. It means there’s an exciting vibe, great songs, top-notch performances, and a band that sounds like they’re out for blood. Coney sound as if there was no pressure – but they delivered their best anyway.
Over 15 tracks ”Live at the El Mocambo” represents the entire career of Coney Hatch, including all your favourites like “Stand Up”, “Devil’s Deck”, “Monkey Bars”, and “Hey Operator”. A couple great tunes from Coney Hatch Four (like “Marseilles”) prove that the Hatch lost nothing when they reunited a few years back.
While everyone will have their own highlights, “Wrong Side of Town” absolutely smokes. The album is paced perfectly with more contemplative tunes like “She’s Gone” balanced out by bangers like “Boys Club”.
Limited to signed, numbered 300 copies, “Live at the El Mocambo” is already sold out. And it’s a collector’s item.
