When you get a chance, please replace the 4/12/91 review on the website with the following. best regards, charlie 4/12/91 Barrymore Theater, Madison, WI High quality copies of this show are out there.. I have a copy off of what sounds pretty clearly to be a cDSBD, and not a cleanly digital board (i.e., a cass>DAT and not a DAT). Opening is fine.. Mike's solo section is especially engaging. He's aiming to please.. Trey's first strike at the Note isn't quite as pleasant as it often is, a touch on the precariously unpleasant side.. his second strike is right on, however. "Boy" at 5:19, after another fine scream. Oooouuu.. Mike is fun-kay in this BMGS segment. He is very audible on this cdsbd, all you Mike fans out there... Definitely on the tramps, with da signals, as usual. From now on, I'm only going to note if they are NOT on the tramps, since this is a bit redundant. It is the "tramps segment" after all (it took about 30 reviews for me to figure this one out, naturally). Page's jamming in the tramps segment is grand, but not as varied as 4/11/91. At 9:22, the jam segment kicks in with Trey soloing actively with fantastic, spectacular accompaniment from Mike. Trey's soloing is captivating.. really is! He's telling a story of sorts with the 'doc.. and Mike's grooving is also quite grand. This jam segment is much better than 4/11/91.. MUCH better. Trey's noodling really well, in here.. but nothing spectacular for him.. At 12:06, bass and drums kick in, with Mike basically teasing that funky tune "Rapper's Delight" by Grand Master Flash... over, and over, again.. =^] Nothing else of import. At 12:43 the final vocal jam kicks in. Blah. I wasn't paying attention.. "Put your balls in the butter" is allegedly repeated, so I'm told. total time 15:35 or something. I'd recommend this second set, fwiw. (B- rating)
