Dream Theater
Taste The Memories
International Fan Club CD 2002

The newest release from the Dream Theater Fan Club is a celebration of Images And Words.  The focus is to offer previously unreleased recordings from the Images And Words tour.  Of significance are some lengthy takes of Moon Bubble and To Live Forever, and a recording of A Change Of Seasons featuring Kevin Moore. 

The tracks are taken from soundboard sources except for A Change Of Seasons.  The IFC did a good job of mixing the tracks and providing a seamless listening experience even though the different sources are used throughout.

I'm a little burned out on recordings from the I&W era but this release is a great addition to the collection.  I'd rank this as better than the last couple of Fan Club discs but not as magical as some of the other live releases through the Fan Club.
