At archive.org, you can listen to Suzanne Vega singing about the line between us; the band playing behind her is the Grateful Dead. It's September 88 in Madison Square Garden. Not necessarily a great listen (and I *like* The Dead) but I'm glad to have heard it -- I had the bit of information floating round my branes that The Dead had once covered this song but no clue what it would have sounded like. The URL is http://www.archive.org/details/gd88-09-24.sbd.rich.425.sbeok.shnf track #10.

My decline in interest started a year or so after Priest = Aura was released. I saw them 2 years ago @ The Magic Bag (one of RH's preferred metro Detroit venues) and my interest was renewed, and I started buying some of the remastered earlier albums and a couple of post Priest = Aura albums.
