Label : no label

Venue : John Van Duzer Theatre, Arcata, California, USA

Date : November 3, 1997

Quality : soundboard recording (A+)

Review : Another great soundboard recording from one of the Charity Of Night Tour shows. Ben Riley on drums, Steve Lucas on bass and Bruce Cockburn on guitars and vocals. Excellent!

Review (101Guitars) : An absolutely crystal clear, stunning soundboard recording. I don't think it can get any better than this. Among 1997 Bruce Cockburn boots, there's a few unique qualities to this show: an early version of Embers of Eden before it was released in 1999 on Breakfast In New Orleans... Wise Users (unreleased except on the Honor The Earth Campaign double CD, still available on Amazon as a Bruce Cockburn/Hugh Marsh treat), Sahara Gold and Silver Wheels. They may have been played at other shows, but none recorded that I know of.
