TIGHT, IN GOOD HUMOUR & on form - this band get better & better ! The set list - Fireball,Maybe I'm A Leo,Ted The Mechanic,Pictures Of Home,Woman From Tokyo,Cascades,Black Night,No One Came,Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming,Mary Long,Rosa's Cantina,Smoke On The Water,Organ Improvisation,When A Blind Man Cries,Purpendicular Waltz,Somebody Stole My Guitar,Speedking - Perfect Strangers,Hey Cisco,Highway Star. Highlight was "When A Blind Man Cries" - sublime guitar & IG giving it his all.Lowpoint "Mary Long" - never a strong song & suffers in comparison with the new material. At times Steve Morse & Jon Lord reminded me of Van Leer & Akkerman from Focus. Excellent duelling between guitar,vocals & keyboards some spontaneous.At times Paicey appeared to tire of IG's lengthy introductions "This is another true story......" all in good humour - lots of smiles.
Superb light show and the sweetest sound mix I have heard for along time.
What a show,what a band - come to Cambridge again soon please..!
