Anyone have a cool live 'EO17' from the SA tour?

If so, can you share? 'Street Angel' tour is what I'm after this time, I know I'm usually RAL tour focused. Just want to hear an EO17 from then, is all. I only caught one evening of this tour (at The Jones Beach Theater) and darned if I can really remember much. I'm trying to give SA tour stuff another listen, inspired by a conversation I had with David many moons ago..

Just so happens you caught me trying to organize my bootleg collection tonight. Maybe this will jog your memory. EO17 from Jones Beach 1994.

Thanks for sharing that '94 EO17 from Jones Beach. I don't remember too much besides the crimped hair, but I will have to say the long guitar riff at the beginning (with congas) strikes me a memory that I turned to my buddy that night and said "This is Edge of Seventeen Las Vegas style?"

Vocally, she's in better form, as David originally pointed out to me. At least, it's better than the 3 other snoozer tours the preceded this (OSOTM, BTM, Timespace).

This is from the Ohio State Fair

This is the one song/tour where Stevie took her microphone off the stand and crouched down to do the wail. I think she did this most of the tour, which was very unusual for Mama.

See, to me the song had a tempo problem on the Street Angel tour. It needs to be brisker. Otherwise it gives the impression of a walrus trying to hoist its weight off the beach & back into the surf.

Still, I agree you, Pete: Better singing than on the previous three (& for my money, better than on the following ten).
