Notes sbd [2007-01-22] This is an excellent performance with great sound and mix and the aud used to splice is very good for this era - hence this should be on the must hear once list. FOTM debuts here and it was paired with Scarlet to end set 1. The 1st of many S>F's! The pacing is a bit slower than what it will evolve into. Its worth hearing this 1st version to see how the pairing evolve dover time. The NFa is a strong version as noted by the TC review. The playing this night seems relaxed and not frenetic at all though it does communicate to this listener a lot of energy by not playing in a full steam ahead style. Jerry says "See ya all later" at the end which usually is the mark of a good show.
