Geetarz' Comments: 

I've made no secret of my opinion that the 2001 tour was EC's worst of the last 25 years. It wasn't that the playing wasn't good ... it was that it was slick, rehearsed, rushed at times. In many ways it was more like a stage production where every note was planned out beforehand. Even if we want to talk about the worst tours of his entire career, at least in the 1970s he had the excuse of being drunk and high as a kite, and though the shows were uneven, that in some ways is more interesting than being consistently mundane. 

This show is happily a diversion from the mundane nature of most of that tour, and a standout performance. 

As an additional bonus, it's also one of the better audience recordings from that tour.
