This cd reminds me exactly of his 2 shows in Dec 99 at the Van Dyke in Schenectady, NY. This cd has some great music and extraordinary banjo/guitar/mandolin work. I highly reccomend this to anybody.

This is probably the recorded live CD I ever heard. Most of the live CD recordings I have heard distracts from the music. This doesn't ! In fact the audience only adds to the experience but does not take away from the music. Not a filler on this CD.

They don't refer to John as "The String Wizard" for no reason.
This is an absolutely delightful live performance. The wonderful interplay between a very comfortable veteran performer and a highly appreciative audience, that never loses it's mutual respect. Here is an artist sharing his gifts of music and stories, and a crowd that loves it. Self deprecating, reminiscing and enjoying himself. By all measures, a good time was had by all. Thankfully someone had the good sense to have tape rolling, 'cause it's a gem!
If you enjoy a hand clappin' foot stompin' show, then this is right up your alley.And here's the kicker...at this point it is selling for such a ridiculously cheap price, you've got nothin' to lose, and everything to gain!
Do yourself a huge favor. Go buy it now, it's an absolute blast!
