This was a request. lillian posted this show in May '05. This was Chan's first show after a bunch of shows were canceled the month before because of a hand injury.
The recording seems like a close capture but it does have its warts. It appears to a solo show and, if you are familiar with her concert appearances, you won't be surprised that Chan ends songs abruptly or interrupts them. It's one of her unpolished shows. I think I've seen six shows of Chan's in total and all were pre-2005 and all were like this. I suspect she was still drinking then and she didn't stop drinking 'til later - so I have never seen the sober, more professional style about which audiences speak. But I still like her voice and I still listen to tapes of her shows.
Neither audio nor tracking was changed and I can't swear by the complete accuracy of the setlist.
