I was VERY pleasantly surprised while listening to this set. Not only is it awesome (not surprising at all), but song #29 "Ordinary" turns out to be "Magic Marker" from the Monsters of Folk! So I guess Jim was sitting on that song for a couple years. And also, "Look at You" makes an appearance, a little before Evil Urges came out.
Now, obviously Bruce Springsteen is my favorite artist (MMJ a close second) and my favorite tour (and album) is Darkness on the Edge of Town. I love this tour, and the bootlegs of it, for several reasons. Well I love the album, but the tour includes great versions of all those songs, Born to Run songs and also early versions of songs off the future album The River. Bruce would try out different versions of new/unreleased songs live and see how they worked. He would sit on some songs and wait to use them if they weren't applicable to the theme of whatever album he was working on (See: Born in the USA - originally recorded during the sessions that became the Nebraska album). Anyway, it appears our old buddy Yim does the same things. I wonder what other goodies he's got. But in this information age, I guess it's a lot tougher to just "try things out" live.
thanks john- going to go download it and tomorrow's listening is now picked out
