calvin i gave it a 9:
great live renditions of their electronica songs give the songs more life and rock energy(especially the version of "like spinning plates") but the only thing that keeps this album from getting a ten is the fact that thewy have an incomplete version of "true love waits". I absouluteley love the song (it's my all time favorite) but it's different from the first version cuz it lacks the keyboard melody, which made the song so much more special, giving it a techno feel that was actually bueatiful. but this album has the acoustic only version, not the acoustic and keyboard version, and the latter it such a better song because it;s proof that songs with sonic landscapes can be bueatiful and touching. I love "true love waits" but i loved the one wwith the keyboard so much more.

Radiohead adds live to its songs what the albums may have lacked: pure rock n roll energy. And they don't even bother to reproduce the extensive studio effects. But it's so short and limited!
Steve Y. gave it a 6:
I have been a mad Radiohead fan since the release of The Bends, this is the first Radiohead CD that has disappointed me. The great live versions of Like Spinning Plates and True Love Waits are almost worth the money on their own for Radiohead fanatics, but the other 6 tracks are nothing special, I prefer the album versions. The main reason I rate this so lowly is that it's such a missed opportunity. I have a hard disk full of bootleg Radiohead MP3s of their various live and unreleased tracks. There are dozens that I think are much better than the tracks on I Might Be Wrong. The live version of National Anthem Radiohead used is one of the least interesting I have heard. Only putting 8 tracks on the CD doesn't seem very generous when you consider how many great Radiohead recordings are around. If there were a few more unreleased tracks, b-sides, or maybe some live versions of OK Computer songs then I would have given this a much higher rating.

radiohead at it's best-LIVE-!!the blend of crowd noise and different beats redefines most of the bad critic that this band have endured in the past. a must buy!!!
Eric D. gave it a 10:
Proof that critics are silly, and fail to admit their inacuracies with so-called "reviews" (more like unfounded opinions) of Kid A and Amnesiac. And that goes for those who were favorable too. Silly music critics.
Anna H. gave it a 10:
All of Radiohead's music is good. Very sensual.
