Yea, Woody, it's always amazed me how busy Steve has been since as far back as 1967. He's had a lot of material and does not plan on retiring anytime soon, from the sound of his latest interview.

I finally got a chance to read through the entire interview and the one thing I found really interesting (and a little disappointing!) was that "A Venture" was discussed as a possible tune for this tour but was voted out. That song may be my favorite of all of the old sleeper tunes. I especially like the ending with Chris, Tony and Bill doing some very nice syncopation. Steve lays back in this section with just some nice big jazz chords and then hits a blistering solo as the track fades... a LOT of potential if performed live!

That would be a great one to see live. I've always loved that ending.
