"Perfect"

By dayo1977, Jun 20, 2007 Report Abuse

The show was taped on the eve of the release of Hootie and the Blowfish's sophomore album Fairweather Johnson. The performances are all excellent, although some might find the strings on the last few songs out of place. Nanci Griffith's contributions are what make the event really stand out.
