Agree, DS used to end their shows with this from the early 80s onwards with the road crew taking the microphones down during the song ! MK plays it on a Les Paul now rather than a Strat and I like the way the arrangement has changed to reflect the larger band he plays with nowadays, such as the brass section. But even in DS days he used to evolve songs over the course of a few tours.
