If a fight breaks out, tell that tenor player that I'm on HIS side.
Swinging like a barn door in a storm!
Thank you.

Yeah, like others have done, I could compare it to the original, maybe pick apart individual performances and all that... but I'd much rather just say that I was delighted to hear this played live with modern sound kit, and that I thoroughly enjoyed the vid.
Of course, Kevin was the star of the whole piece, though - Definitely want some more of *that* mess!!
