You Pay Your Money and You Take Your Chance: Bruce Cockburn Live is a short but sweet EP recorded on his supporting tour for his 1997 album Charity of Night. Featuring only six songs, the disc may be too short for the dedicated fans who are its target audience, but all of the six songs sound terrific. These are impassioned, elastic performances, bending according to Cockburn's emotions. The only problem is that it's simply an EP, not a full album, but it's still a worthwhile purchase for any dedicated Cockburn fan. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
