Product Description
Liquid White Light finds Poi Dog incarnating what should be pop music anthems into a living mix of delicate beats. This double-CD live set, recorded during a sold-out five-night run at Chicago's historic Vic Theater, shows the current state of the band, and their masterful evolution from folksy to funky, making this album a bedfellow of electronica.

 You need this one! August 21, 2004

Words cannot describe the power in this Poi CD. There is so much "white light" energy throughout the entire set and the vocals will not let you down! God's Gallipolli is my favorite song off of CD two - makes you wanna get up and dance with them...Jackass Ginger, Platetectonic and Complicated are all booming with bass, violin, horn, and Frank Orrall's amazing deep vocals - even if you are not a die hard fan of Poi, this is one CD for every person with an ear for good music not to miss!!!
 Big Chicago band busts out with this one February 8, 2003

It's hard to categorize this big, loud Chicago band, but on this live 2-CD release they could be considered a sort of cross between Sly and the Family Stone and Santana with house and techno elements. Which of course, makes them unique. Not many bands attempt to blend horns, strings, keyboards, guitars, percussion and vocals and fewer still succeed in doing so. PDP has been a Chicago favorite for years. Disc 2 especially has as much energy as you'll ever get on a little piece of plastic; if you're not moving to that; you're beyond help. Check out the monologue on "Shu Zulu Za", Frank Orral's snarling vocals throughout, and especially the last two tracks on Disc 2, "Platetectonic" and "Complicated"; the latter their best-known number. You'll wish you were at the concert! Pop it in your CD player, turn it up and protect your fragile valuables!

If you have not been fortunate enough to experience Poi Dog Pondering live, this will give you a taste of what you're missing. I've seen Poi Dog twice, and this 2-disc set is almost like being there. Poi Dog has so much energy onstage that you can't help but get wrapped up in the music. The live versions of their older tunes still keep a little of the old flavor, but they definitely adapt well to the newer dance rhythms Poi Dog has embraced over the past few releases. And the songs here from Pomegranate and Volo Volo surpass the studio versions. This is my favorite PDP disc and one of my favorites in my collection.
A Great Sampling September 28, 2002
This is the record that sold me on PDP. When I lived in Chicago PDP was absolutely huge there. I couldn't help but fall under their spell. This set shows the various sides to the band. The second CD just burns throughout. It lifts your spirits and makes you want to dance and sing along...
Lightning in a Bottle September 12, 2002
There are two reasons to buy this album: You must hear Frank in the beginning of the album say "Hello my friends, thanks so much for coming." It sounds like he's welcoming people for Sunday mass--priceless. Secondly, I've introduced these guys to at least a dozen people and every single one has become a fan to some degree. Warrants mentioning. Plus, gotta love that album cover!
