Summary

I've been thinking it was time for a post-Brent show so I've decided on this one from Shoreline on May 12, 1991. This one has an interesting, well-played setlist, including the breakout of Dylan's "It Takes A Lot To Laugh It Takes A Train To Cry".

Bruce Hornsby is with the band and I always enjoyed his contributions.

'Deal' is a smokin' set closer here..
