With 2020 you've got Beautiful Drug (Phil), Story of Love (Shanks), Blood in the Water (Shanks) Brothers in Arms (my gut is telling me it's both of them planned left and right). Luv Can and Shine were both Shanks I'm fairly certain.

I absolutely agree that Shanks's playing style is slightly bluesier and less frantic but when it comes to the faster paced stuff Phil is better. To me anyway.
Fair point. I didn't count the solos to be honest. I was typing that thought with WDR and THINFS on mind. WDR sucks btw, I don't know why Phil feels the need to play it differently. Shanks' original solo is perfect but I doubt he (Shanks) would be able to pull it off live.

One idea - is it necessary to have this thread when the concert/show is being mainly discussed in the album thread?
