The Black Keys Live Performance of Their Hits at All Points West
On August 2, 2009, The Black Keys delivered an electrifying performance at the All Points West festival in Jersey City, shortly after the release of their fifth studio album, "Attack & Release." This album marked a significant turning point for the duo, as it introduced keyboardist and producer Danger Mouse into the mix, which brought a richer sound to their gritty blues-rock roots. The live recording captures the energy and raw vibe of the Keys during a pivotal moment in their career, right as they were beginning to gain wider acclaim. Notably, they performed fan favorites from their earlier work, like "Lonely Boy" and "Tighten Up," showcasing their powerful blend of garage rock and blues. Their performance at Liberty State Park was not just a highlight of the festival, but also a testament to the growing recognition of their unique sound in the music scene.
