Even when this wonderful group of musicians are not playing with their full force ( Waddy Wachtel missing ) they still can cut the mustard ...every time ! Money can't buy this kind of quality and expertise these guys possess.... No ,that's 50 some years of finely crafted musicianship that very few others ever attain .... wonderfully entertaining .
Is there a proper video or audio recording of this performance? I notice that 'Tightrope' is not on either of the official ELO live albums from 2013 and 2017. I notice how much Mike Stevens, the acoustic guitarist to Jeff's left, faces the band as if to cue them. Were they really that under-rehearsed?
