ALL NIGHT WRONG

I'm rating this disc so highly because it's one of the few instances where you hear Allan's playing naked, no keyboards or horns and Allan reigns in the atmospherics. Beautifully recorded. You never hear the crowd noise until the end of each track, the collective holding of the audiences breath makes this a "near studio" experience. Wackerman and Johnson, drums and bass respectively, are in top form and occassionally share the spotlight, briefly. This is Allan's show, make no doubt about it. If you are interested in hearing Allan's guitar front and center, this is it. All the jaw dropping pyrotechnics, wild legato runs, bends, slurs and creative melodies are present and mind blowing.
