The person who "wrote" this song must be very proud to hear MH's interpretation! Fantastic! Type3 you did a great job. Did you do this from the tape I sent you? It looks better than the digitizing I did.

@billbobagns yes, from the tape you sent. I had to farm it out as I don't have a VHS anymore, and I don't know what settings they used.

Michael and I shared the same route home from the airport in SF on the night he died...he turned off for Mendocino and I went further north. As I headed up the redwood highway I saw a shooting star so brilliant it took my breath away...it went clear across the sky, it was incredible! 2 days later the local paper in Arcata had a front page story that Michael had died on the road, that night. I think the meteor I saw was Michael leaving...

Didn't see this live before, particularly good ! The "rape murder" part always stuns me, but this one did more than that !
