Totally agree, Wuudy. I never understood the Ernie Watts bashing on this board. He's an excellent musician and fitted in perfectly on this tour, esp. on songs like Imagination, WoaF and the ones you mentioned. Truly a great addition to the Art of Weaving - which was REAL back in '81. Keys played only on a couple of songs (his classic solo on BS a.o.) because he is such a poor improviser, contrary to Watts. The best example of his lack of improvisational skill I find always YCAGWYW Brussels version, where he just keps on repeating the last frase of MT's wonderful solo. I'd rather have MT continue for those 5 or 6 minutes. And I think he could easily have done so.
