...find it, finally, one day in Final Vinyl, an LP treasure house in the East Village. It cost me $50, the most I'd ever paid for a record up to that time (I've paid more since). It was an anti-climax, of course - all the really great tunes were on the first one. Maybe I'd changed in the meantime, and was no longer open to the intensity I'd experienced with the original. Somehow Phil Spector had lost the ability to get me there, to put me in the flow, to peak me out. Who knows...

Gore was studiously calm, and kept his exhalations under control, while Bush managed a few jabs at self-deprecating humor that seemed to go over well with the audience. There was far less tension on stage than there?d been in Boston, and far less interrupting; it was a very pleasant, informative and bone-dry exchange. Which is exactly what we want from our politicians...
