| Note | NOTES:
Some track transitions are not entirely seamless - fixed using Sonic Foundry D1 T1: clipped at start (torrenters note) D1 T2: [3:13] volume lowers - modified by torrenter D2 T8: [6:37 - 6:47] rather horrific digi-chopping© - minimized as best possible by torrenter D2 T9: [0:26] volume spike - modified by torrenter D2 T11: [10:50 -11:25] dead runoff - cut by torrenter SOUND: A hint of muffling fogs this recording slightly, but don't let that stop you from picking this one up. Vocals are close and clear, the band is a little compressed but balanced well enough to enjoy. The volume goes up over the last few tracks but the high end suffers for it, so it's a wash. Overall warm and intimate, very nice indeed. COMMENTS: "...oh, what a wonderful feeling / just to know you really exist / sets my heart a-reelin' / just to think it could ever be like this!". Wow, when you sing it like that Bob I gotta go along with you. Strong vocal night, he's doing well, finishing nearly everything on his plate. Check out Mobile, upon first listen it may seen he's locked into this lame monotone delivery, but subsequent spins reveal a subtle shifting that's kind of cool. The one recurring trait here is that on almost every tune he keeps stretching out lines until he runs out of music and is forced to move on. And it's deliberate, his timing is right on, he's not just playing catch-up. He's like a prisoner in some old war flick like Stalag 17 or The Great Escape; he's quietly, discreetly probing for openings. Only difference is he does it in the middle of a live show in front of thousands of people staring right at him. A throw back voice for sure. This just in: Tomorrow Night rules and there's nothing any mortal can do about it. Jim Jones hits with the weight of a meaty Masters Of War, only it's got like, pirates and other cool crap in it. Tambourine Man takes Bob's reluctance to sing within the current arrangements a step further. Listen to how he sings just a word or two or three where he would normally sing an entire line. He keeps letting the beat circle around and back, adding a few more words each time it comes back around; it's either extremely thoughtful toying or extreme boredom, I can't say. (I review live Bob shows as a hobby, my objectivity only goes so far in the end). BOTTOM LINE: *searches Big Book Of Bob Review Clichés* Ah, yes, here we are: "A subtle, slow-building powerhouse! Bob is interested and turns in a continuously must-hear performance! Recommended!"
