I really enjoyed tonight's show, though I would have preferred two sets (and a slightly longer total performance). The ebb and flow of ideas between these two musical giants was wondrous to listen to, and while I did a particularly crappy job of paying attention to the timing of the tunes (or identifying them by title, for that matter), I'm optimistic that someone smarter than me will provide assistance and help correct things later on.

Stephen Smoliar penned a rather laudatory review for the Examiner.
