SHOW
2.2
May 4, 1990: Berklee Performing Arts
Center - Boston, MA
AND
2/26/94: Mountain Stage - Charleston,
WV
Well, the voting was
again went for the older shows, so here we are, the May 4, 1990
show. Since the tape that the show is on (DAT) also had the 2/26/94
performance from Mountain Stage, I've included it as filler.

So, oldies seem to
be a favorite here. This show is an audience recording from the
Caution Horses tour. The performance is interesting. "Coast of Peru"
haunts me every time I hear it. Margo's voice is one of the most
exquisite in music, and this little intro really showcases it. "Five
Room Love Story" started to appear, as well as the story of Joseph
and Lillian's love. Additionally, several tracks from what would
become "Black Eyed Man" were being tested on audiences. Listen to
the very interesting "If You Were the Woman and I Was the Man" at
the start of CD2. It's an interesting arrangement.
The true
showstopper is the extended "Shining Moon." The band plays with
fascinating dynamic shifts, dropping the music to a whisper midway
through, then building a jam that ends in a rousing crescendo and
turns into a quiet ending. This is perhaps THE best performance of
"Shining Moon" I've heard.
There are some
technical glitches on the recording. At the end of several tracks,
the tape momentarily stopped, so there are some abrupt transitions
back into the songs. None of the actual music is missing, save the
last song, which on the recording I have lasts for about 45 seconds.
As such, I decided to cut it out. Better no "Blue Moon" than a
tease, I felt.
The filler is a
radio/soundboard from Mountain Stage in 1994. There are several good
songs on it. I think this is out there already, but it was on the
DAT so I thought, why not? I've especially been listening to as many
performances of "Lungs" as I can find lately, and the one here is
fabulous.
I hope you like
this show as much as I did.
