Simple Pleasures for Simple Minds

Wow, just by chance, I threw a good-looking show I'd never heard on the iPod this morning...a matrix recording of 4-19-78 at Veterans' Memorial Coliseum in Columbus.

Overall, it was just a pretty good show from a year I've always had an affinity for and the recording is nice and crispy.

Then came the encore....I hadn't studied the setlist before, preferring to enjoy things as a surprise. I thought I heard Garcia noodling with Zevon's Werewolves of London, so had to look it up in Deadbase and it was the breakout show for this cover.

What a treat! They go on for a good 10 minutes!
