Breathtaking and yes, epic. And breathes the combined despair and determination of his youthful struggles. Claustrophobic, feeling almost helpless, & entangled in the frustrating throes of crafting and marketing his chosen profession, he was also highly idealistic and highly ambitious at once. He paid the heavy dues but this song rings out, underneath all, that his efforts would reach ample fruition eventually~! Here, he and dynamite Dave ooze outstanding perfection. Very nice recording.

Oh man, this might be the best Al/Dave video on Youtube. Quality from "A" to "Z".

Al Stewart Has so many songs that need to be rereleased on dvd

"Epic" doesn't even begin to do justice to this masterpiece.

Beatiful. I saw them do this at the Ram's Head in Annapolis and in Jim Thorpe, PA. I'd rather see Al (and Dave!) than anyone!
