So here we have every reason I needed to rip these old DATs all in one recording.  This is a fantastic show and capture that had gone completely ignored for nearly 15 years, and for no other reason than I just forgot about it.  Listening to it now I now understand why I caught Neil 3 more times in the 90s and never regretteded any of them; the man rocks!
Extended version of Sugar Mountain, over 8 minutes, and Comes A Time is dedicated to Bonnie Riatt.  The absolute highlights however are the emotional version of Pocohontas and the 17 minute version of Like a Hurricane.

Definitely a recording that would have been a crime to never hear again!
