Recorded live at Lupo's in Providence, Rhode Island on November 19, 1999.
"Nothing more exciting than standing up listening to a bunch of old folkies, is there?" (before Ramblin' Boy/Eve Of Destruction)
Another clear recording of a great performance from the first Mock Tudor tour. The impromptu Eve Of Destruction tease doesn't appear to be a response to an audience request...
There's an unfortunate drop-out before Persuasion, with the first 27s consisting of only silence (it opens with the "Tempted by the promise..." line) but that's the only real flaw in this otherwise faultless audience tape, which ends up being far more enjoyable than I'd expected (given the lack of variation from the usual setlist).
