- ★★★★ · One of the best of the year, but recording has gaps · L. Rosley · 2006
This is a good show from start to finish, including the first set, which has very nice Franklin's Tower. (Brent's "Captain and Tennille" electric piano sounds more like "Muskrat Love" than Brown Eyed Women and Lost Sailor, but it's not too distracting.) I like this Fire and the Estimated Prophet is excellent. Unfortunately, there are a number of cuts in some of the songs. Ollin Arrageed is completely missing, which is a shame.
- ★★★★ · bread crumb · kbmill · 2014
I was intrigued to hear the Lost Sailor > Althea which turns out to be more sequential the linkage. A kind of, "let's play the new songs" rather than "I wonder if there is path from one to the other." I continue to muse on the half-step > franklin's show opener. Half-step is such an upbeat tune with such decidely gloomy lyrics - following it with a song of unrepentant hope provides a sort of meta-physical balance. Last thought.
