3. "Live in Baden-Baden Germany March 1990" (2006) - DVD - Great live DVD of the Steve Morse Band with Dave LaRue and Van Romaine.  Featured songs in the main concert are "The Introduction", "General Lee", "Country Colors", "Sleaze Factor", "Highland Wedding", "Tumeni Notes", "Point Counterpoint", "Night Meets Light", "Ice Cakes", "Rock 'N' Roll Park", "Pride of the Farm", and "Cruise Missile".  There are four addional performances from an earlier show: "Refried Funky Chicken", "Northern Lights", "Pride of the Farm", and "Rock 'N' Roll Park", and the promotional music video for "Cruise Missile" is also included on the DVD.  When I first purchased this DVD, I intended on watching only a couple of cuts and planned to watch the rest later.  However, once the DVD started playing I was so entranced by the performance that I ended up listening to most of the DVD during the first playing.  This is a fanfastic performance by an amazing trio of musicians.  If you are a Steve Morse or Dixie Dregs fan, you need this.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, especially for guitarists.
