"Here we are, four young lads lost in Seattle." (before Mascara Tears)

Enjoyable enough 1994 full-band show, featuring Danny Thompson, Pete Zorn and Dave Mattacks. A soundboard recording, but omitting the opening number (I Ride In Your Slipstream) and about seven tracks from the end of the show (including, criminally, a rare outing for Jerusalem On The Jukebox) in order to fit the gig onto a single disc. The Boulder show remains the definitive document of this tour.

A genuine highlight of this recording is a stunning rendition of Taking My Business Elsewhere, possibly the best version of that particular track I've heard.

Taken from a commercial bootleg, released by the Sea Monkey label in 1996.

Update: I've now obtained a full copy of the soundboard, transferred from cassette. It's a touch hissy when played on a stereo, but is an essential acquisition for its varied setlist and fine performances.
