Full-on admiration of the work accomplished and a very enjoyable listen. Thanks for posting; it goes some small way towards reconciling my ears to the horrors of the original post. Yeah, I agree.

dmccombe7 Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Do you think Mr Kimball is just having a laugh and taking the fosters out of the song ? Wonder what the rest of the gig was like. Quote

Wonder what the rest of the gig was like. This one includes a comment from Mr. Kimball himself. He seems to agree that it sounds awful, blaming it on technical problems. Quote
