Nice one. Thank you for this!

A quick note: To my ears, it's "Horizontal Hold", not "24-Track Loop", at the end of "Wrong Soundings" at that Atlanta show. However, no guitars--just drums and organs. So it's status as a "cover" might fall entirely upon the ear of the beholder. It's a bit like getting an unlabeled Alice Coltrane tape and being uncertain as to whether or not she's playing "My Favorite Things." Perhaps.
