Entreat Plus

I’d heard about this album on the Holy Hour podcast & decided to try my luck at finding it. And oh wow, what a show! I saw them on the Prayer (disintegration) tour but I don’t remember it being like this. I ended up driving around for an hour just to listen to it a second time. If you love the Cure (and if you’ve read this far you surely do), you need this.Just know there are multiple versions. I received the original 1990 release, 8 songs, not remixed or remastered. The remastered version has had some criticism over changes, and some issues with the US pressing, but I haven’t heard that one yet. Entreat Plus is a remaster with four extra songs - purists say the original was the best tho. And while I haven’t heard the others myself yet, I have to say it would be seriously hard to top this masterpiece.

I purchased this used but it is in pristine condition. The seller even put a sales receipt dated back in '91 inside the CD case. I am a huge Cure fan and I never purchase live albums but I have heard so much about this album over the years and how good the concert is from London. Well, folks did not lie. It is an excellent concert consisting of Disintegration tracks only. It is a really good listen and shows how good a band the Cure is live. Especially this incarnation w/the same musicians who recorded the landmark album. They sounded so tight and Robert's voice was really strong especially on Prayers for Rain. Very good listen and I am elated that I finally have it in my collection.

This review should go quick and easy... If you bought this album or are thinking of getting it, it means that most likely you're a fan of The Cure. More specifically, you probably are a fan of Disintegration (or at least have heard it). Entreat is the live version of Disintegration, song by song , and in the same order.Disintegration is a great album, one of The Cure's best. Entreat, I'm my opinion, is a must-have, especially for fans!

Order received quickly, as ordered, with somewhat adequate packaging. The product itself is in excellent condition with no scratches, jewel case perfect, sleeve in perfect condition ... Even though some clod left his boot-print on the envelop - thankfully where the CD was NOT.For those of you wondering, no, I couldn't tell if it was British or American :D

I’m not huge on live albums, but The Cure are in very good form here performing the Disintegration album in its entirety. Little crowd noise and mostly faithful renditions, so it’s kind of like an alternate version of the album, aside from a non-whispery “Lullaby” and a faster version of the title track.

If you love Disintegration, you have to get this. Although one can complain that the versions here are too close to the original studio album, Pictures of You & Prayers for Rain are riveting in the live arena. More importantly, it has The Same Deep Water As You & Plainsong which were missing from the original Entreat.

I have worn out two cassettes and a CD of this......and now....remastered on 180 g vinyl, with four added songs.....speechless. This is my favorite ever version of "Disintegration," and I treasure having it now on vinyl. This is beautiful. Worth the price for the track "The Same Deep Water As You." Thank you, Robert Smith.

Had a bootleg in my youth. Nice to hear it so crisp. Great album
