Recorded at the 1987 Benefit Live as an ultra-high quality line recording made by the people involved. First, there was a sound check where we played jazz numbers etc. (There are some parts where there are quite a few gaps between songs). Then suddenly Stevie starts playing. I faint because of all the rare performances, but all the instrumental parts were created by Stevie on the computer. First of all, Love Light In Flight from Woman In Red, the single jFront Line from the best album Musiquarium I, and Bird Of Beauty, which is simple and powerful with only piano, is divine and will bring tears to your eyes. And Happier Than The Morning Sun is a hidden masterpiece from 1972's Music Of My Mind, and although it doesn't have an impressive guitar, it's also wonderful because Stevie's sound comes to the fore. The live version of You Are The Sunshine Of My Life, which becomes one with the audience, has almost no cheers, so the woman in the chorus sounds like a substitute. And Stevie sings a wonderful chorus of Saving All My Love For You. Billy Ocean's cover of Suddenly, the beautiful Overjoyed, and My Cherie Amour were probably due to something wrong with the sequencer, so I had to redo them. And the last song is Go Home, which has a spacey keyboard sound that suits it very well. This is a super rare live performance of Stevie who can do anything by himself.
