| Tech Note | Brilliant performance, with a similar setlist to his 1997 live album (recorded at the Holywell Music Room, Oxford - I was at that show) - but with the addition of his entertaining between-song chat. Great, earthy version of "Spoonful", and a beautiful reading of "The Shearing's Not For You". Almost perfect sound, modulo a 1sec dropout at 4:55 on track 24, plus some occasional pitch wobble (tape stretching?). |
