Thanks, Dave. It's amazing how I'm drawn to live albums more than studio projects.
I've always wondered (and all of us who played in bands will know this vibe) why bands didn't record like this: Get an album's worth of tunes, play them on the road till they get to just that moment where they just flow, then drop in and record them in nothing flat while they're hot and fresh and jumpin'.
I suppose it's because this only works on the way up: Once you've all made money, take months off, have families, you're no longer breathing each other's air 24/7 . . . OK, I answered my own question. But if I was in that position, you could always do the 2 week club stint and work 'em up.
