The review
Sugar Boy is another version of the '99 Stockholm show with slightly better sound and some nice bonus tracks including the "Dolphins" b-side. This is Beth in full band mode here, including the haunting violin that opens "She Cries Your Name." Beth's voice is incredible during the show: rough, raw, and bittersweet: she's the girl you want to meet in a coffee shop whose conversation dazzles you all night. While this show has been around a few times, this is the version to track down.
