For a band that specializes in one-shot videos, this live album culled from the YouTube kings' 2010 tour sure has a lot of edits. Featuring 15 songs -- ten from last year's Of the Blue Colour of the Sky -- performed in 14 cities, it starts jarringly, ?occasionally segues abruptly, and fails to contrive a complete, satisfying show over its 58 minutes. ?Although the songs' ?arrangements differ little from the studio originals, they do confirm that OK Go can catch a groove without a zillion overdubs. Downside: no dance routines.
