12-31-1988 – Complete Show

For the Clarence Clemons fans: He first joins in at 16:40 on the Wang Dang Doodle. Clarence comes out again to ring in the New Year with Sugar Magnolia and a few more tunes at about 1:01:00. Then, he is out again for the last two songs, starting at 2:46:27.

Drums starts at 1:35:30. It seems that Sikuru Adepoju is to the far left, obscured most of the time; Kitaro is to the right; and Baba Olatunji is in the middle.
