Notes:
I received this on dat some time ago and it was labeled as a DSBD. It is obvious from the very first listen that there is an aud source mixed in, making this a true matrix...and a fine one at that. I wish I knew the mic source...if someone knows the info, feel free to post it here.

Anyway, I'm finally getting into some of these Yoshi's '98 shows. This is a great solo gig w/ some minor accompaniment by Steve Kimock. While Kimock is certainly audible, he chooses to lay low with his solos (IMO of course). Bruce, on the other hand, is on fire! We get lots of extended piano jams (Country Doctor, Way It Is are both very long) mixed with a great setlist.

A few other things to mention...
The Terrapin Jam that starts the late show is not the traditional one that we know from Bruce...it is actually the closing jam of Terrapin that he brilliantly weaves into a unique version of Way It Is. We then get the more familiar Terp jam in the middle of Way It Is. I could go on and on, but I'll just stop here and let the music do the talking. Enjoy!
