Here is Dolph Chaney’s Election Eve show, in which we find him valiantly defeating untimely Windows Update delays and the complete disintegration of a guitar input jack mid-song to deliver a set that alternately rages and soothes. In other words, just a typical day in Studio Dolphty… except not. Style points for updating a Zappa classic, acousticizing Devo & Rush, and performing both Peter Gabriel’s and Kate Bush’s parts of a moving duet — on top of strong renditions of a brace of Dolph originals. Take care of each other on Election Day — even with masks on, you can tell each other “It’s OK“!
