This is an incredible, unique, fast-paced version. Bob's singing is superb and Phil's bass playing is lickety-split in the best possible way.

I didn't really like Lost Sailor>Saint ... until I heard this version! Very dramatic playing.

As isles says, "slow, funky, druggy." Just so. Extraordinary version of the song.

It's not that they make time stand still--it's that they transport past time (this is an old song) into the present without sacrificing anything of its original character. Kinda miraculous!

Wow--like so many other songs from this night, this is a perfect balance of all the elements that make the song great.
