New mics in a new stealth arraignment lead to three things I don’t care for. One of these impacts the enjoyment for me. This is a thumping that I cause. You will hear it at the end of most songs. I might do a fix later, but it is very tedious, enjoy.

The hardest thing for me about this new hobby is not being to show my love for the musicians. I guess they will just have get by on my money.

John Lee Hooker
with guest guitarist Carlos Santana
March 17, 1989
Luther Burbank Center
Santa Rosa, California, USA

From a 1st gen. audience VHS tape. Decent quality “stage recording” audio from a 1st gen. VHS tape. As is typical for this type of audience recording the instruments sound great but the vocals are a bit in the background. Carlos is out there for most of the set but there are 3 other guitarists and he is the guest so he doesn’t solo that much. But there are a few really ripping guitar solos if you know where to find them. Since the DVD video will have AC3 (Dolby Digital) audio this lossless version is for those who might want it this way too. I’m posting this before the video because I need some help with the setlist for the DVD authoring. I did the best I could but any additions/corrections will be much appreciated and the DVD video will follow shortly.
