The "Strangers" from this whole run seem uniformly hot, and this doesn't disappoint.

Digging some 1990s spring tour lately. The LIG from this show is obviously magical, but there's great stuff throughout.

Worth a listen to the first Althea on the historic night of Tiger's premiere.

Incredible version on its own, and for the transition to "Franklin's."
Franklin's Tower

Nassau Coliseum

The groove they hit in the middle of that is unreal.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Stadium

IMHO, I prefer this one to the two May versions listed above, and the Franklin's is just jubilant. The transitions around and between these tunes are incredible as well.
