    I hope they release the whole show - When they started releasing these songs, I could tell by what the guys wear wearing. It was the hatrick era because of those funky throwback 1800s three-piece suits.

    Greetings from Cebu City, Philippines. Never missed their 3 concerts in late 1992, launching of Here and Now album in 2007 and had a very brief chat with Gerry and Dewey that time with my wife and also sometime in 2009. I'm now 54 and I grew up listening their music since in the late 70's on radio, my few collection of cassettes, vinyl, CDs and now thru the internet through the years! My wife and even our daughter love their music. Thanks for the music and the memories!

      I think they are a mystery to everyone! Fragments of ideas all mixed up with some sort of never-ending symbolism which is nonsensical but to themselves. It’s a pity - but then they were young. Their lyrics have improved since then and they don’t have to conceal what they want to say any more, or just babble.

    I agree I thought I would never see this performed live, one of my favorite acoustic bands, especially as a trio, their genius as far as I am concerned is with Crosby stills and Nash, my all-time favorite solo artist Dan Fogelberg, I still have followed and bought all of Americaalbums over the years, but I truly missed Dan when he left the band, but I understand his leaving in order to follow his Christian walk with Jesus

    I remember watching this on BBC 2 and for years after I could have sworn that they played hattrick live on this show. So much so that I thought that I had imagined it. They hadn't even started recording the album yet. They went back to LA and began recording the album on the 29th May. In my humble opinion this is better than the album version, even though Bruce and Carl from the Beach Boys sang background. I think they also played sumarine ladies in this show.

      I sure looked forward to what song is coming next from this wonderful session. As they have the style of the Hat Trick cover shoot I figured something would come from that amazing album. 6th song in and it's the title track, such a surprise and it's stunning. Submarine Ladies would be perfect but I'd love anything from it (apart from Muskrat Love maybe).
