Sorry if this was discussed before, but I just purchased this CD w/dvd, and I am quite impressed. Like to know your reviews or can someone direct me to previous forum topics on this subject.

Yes, I am a prominent Mint Condition fan since I saw them live a week ago at a concert here in VA. They are very talented and sound supurb live than they do on album, even though they still sound good on album.

I also dig these brothas as well. I heard that they give a hell of a show.

I didn't know that a dvd recording of a concert in DC did not come in every copy of "Livin' the luxury brown". I got my copy in WalMart in a pile of discounted cd's at $9.79. I see that I have quite a few previous releases to purchase. The dvd is great, sound quality is excellent (play it very loud the first time like I did). My only disappointment was that this was the first time I had seen MC perform, and I must say Stokley is a good singer but his showmanship skill is weak for a 'frontman'. The rest of the band did a great job especially on b/g vocals.

If U like Mint Condition, check out these guys... I bought their CD after hearing just one track... It's definitely Mint Condition "Mint factory" territory!

FUNKILINIUM

The Live DVD at Club 930 Washington DC is off the hook!!!

I liked their first album. That was funky. Tere second was ok too. Though the tempo was slowing down.

And "pretty brown eyes" was not THAT good.

This CD is okay. Definition of a Band is my favorite.

I gotta admit that as stoked as I was about this cd, when it was released, I was a little dissappointed. It was in very heavy rotation upon its release but it just didn't have "staying power". It was nice but I hear a lot of backtracking. Just because these guys are a "band" in the true sense of the word, that doesn't make up for some of the lackluster material.

Definition of a band is better than "Livin' the luxury brown" though...

Most definitely!!!!! I just don't think they will be able to top that album. Even Life's Aquarium didn't hit me quite the same either but I will say that Luxury Brown fares better than Life's Aquarium.
