Summary

I've had some requests for later day concerts, so here is a good one that is only 30 years old ;)

This was the first night of a three day run at Shoreline, and the band sounds as though they are happy to be there and playing well together! This is a fine recording as well, with only a few minor glitches. The first set has plenty of energy throughout, and while it is marred, in my opinion only with the inclusion of 'Easy Answers' the fabulous 'So Many Roads' more than makes up for it. They close with a smoking 'Promised Land' as well.
