Magnificent solo performance captured as an excellent audience recording. Cockburn's utter and total mastery of the guitar is demonstrated repeatedly. Sound is perfectly clear and interaction with the audience captured in detail. Applause has been reduced and talk amplified. To my mind this is exactly how an audience recording should sound and how it should represent the performance.
Defects: Occasional coughing from the crowd. Frequently my gentle breathing is heard. None of this is in any way serious.
