Review:
I use the word 'incredible' and 'breathtaking' often to describe recordings. "At times I think there are no words but these to tell what's true" ... but they are never more true nor deserved than here.  The title tells you it's a soundboard recording. It doesn't tell you that it's one of the best you'll ever hear. The performance is a soul-baring masterpiece. The recording sparkles with a perfect blend of crisp vocals that are way out on top, and warm, full sounding instruments. This is not to be missed. The package and photos are nice. Aesthetics are simple and elegant. The only complaint that could be registered is: 'Why doesn't Sony release this amazing show into the hands of a wider audience!?"
