I saw them last year @ the Nokia Theater and felt like they were just phoning it in. They didn't even do a single encore. That's right, finished the last song, said good night, and walked off stage. It was weird.

for STEELY fans i highly recommended walter's 11 STACKS 0' WAX...for me, the best overall music of the bunch...

any opinions?

Sounds like we have similar taste in music. At the least, there is a lot of overlap.

BTW, Tumbleweed Connection is one of my all-time favorite albums, artistically, but the production is some of the worst I've heard.

It sounds "dull" to me. Almost like it was recorded using a cheap, portable tape recorder and/or microphones you'd get with your Dell computer. I had high hopes that it was just the 8-tracks and LPs that I was listening to but even when it was released on CD it just didn't sound right to me. To the point of being distracting. Too bad, since the music is so good - in my Top Ten for the Rock Ballad category. I still enjoy listening to the album every now and then, it's just not as enjoyable as it could be.

All the rest of Sir John's albums that I've heard have had good to great production quality. Not sure why Tumbleweed Connection sounds so bad to my ears.
