Released at the end of 2005, Live: The Beautiful Soul Tour is the second release following in the wake of Jesse McCartney's 2004 debut, Beautiful Soul, arriving just a few months after the DVD Up Close, which contained a mix of music videos and live-in-the-studio performances, but no live concert material. Live draws very heavily from his debut -- ten of Beautiful Soul's 12 songs are here, with the other two songs being versions of "Good Life," which originally appeared on the soundtrack to the Disney Channel movie Stuck in the Suburbs, and "Best Day of My Life," which appeared on the soundtrack to the 2004 Hilary Duff film A Cinderella Story. The results are professional and practiced, and will tide some tweeners over until the next proper album. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
