"Ortho" Tree: "The two 1995 ?solo? performances from the Middle East Club (the other is 5/24/95) showcase Peter Himmelman?s manic, spontaneous performing style. PH is in rare form on album staples Shiloh, Raina, Impermanent Things, This Too Will Pass, and many others.
But it?s PH?s ability to engage the audience that sets these performances apart. Himmleman performs his solos shows without a script or a setlist, and the results are evident. PH also loves to include musicians, both pros and amateurs in his solo shows. In these Mid East shows, PH calls upon band members from each night?s opening acts to join him throughout both shows, beckoning them onto stage like a group of volunteer firefighters. Some cat named "Winkle" joins PH on stage for both shows -- they even switch guitars in the middle of a song on one of the shows."
