This is what it's all about! Stevie and the band had just taken a few months off. Other than a couple of gigs here and there and another gig about 3 weeks earlier, this was the start of a new tour. It was the second show of the first tour to support the album " In Step." The band had been playing a few of these songs in 1988, but the album was just coming out at this time. Stevie is definitely getting it together for the summer tour.
Look at this setlist! Incredible! This is the ONLY recording I know of that has the song "Scratch n' Sniff!" If there are any others, they would be around this time period. Please upload them if you have them, no matter what the quality! Two other standout performances are a ripping "Leave my girl alone" that is 9:11 long (that's an extra 4-5 minutes of jam folks!) and an exceptionally tasty rendition of "Riviera Paradise." This is a fun, loose performance where Stevie really stretches out and jams. Outstanding setlist, one of the more unusual in all the SRV field recordings. I noted the length of some of the songs that are stretched a bit beyond the typical length.
Sound quality: Decent audience recording, a bit boomy, no annoying audience chatter, very listenable, B or so. Sorry I don't know how to do MP3 samples. DO NOT let sound concerns keep you from downloading this killer show! You will never regret having this show!
The vocals suffer the most, and Stevie's singing this night is a bit rough here and there anyway, but the guitar rocks!!!!!!!
