* An excellent audience recording, marred only an odd clicking sound between tracks from someone seated nearby and some conversation before [[The Long Honeymoon]]. Acoustics and miking must have been perfect--all instruments can be heard and EC is rarely drowned out by the band. You can even hear EC counting a song's intro off-mike. The EC songs are good, especially [[The Long Honeymoon]], but [[Watching The Detectives]] does not work at all. The Mingus songs are hit-and-miss--always challenging, but sometimes there probably shouldn't have been a vocal. Overall, a rewarding CD, even if it's not EC's finest hour.

- An excellent audience recording, marred only an odd clicking sound between tracks from someone seated nearby and some conversation before The Long Honeymoon. Acoustics and miking must have been perfect--all instruments can be heard and EC is rarely drowned out by the band. You can even hear EC counting a song's intro off-mike. The EC songs are good, especially The Long Honeymoon, but Watching The Detectives does not work at all. The Mingus songs are hit-and-miss--always challenging, but sometimes there probably shouldn't have been a vocal. Overall, a rewarding CD, even if it's not EC's finest hour.
