I have read this many times.  all tunes were set, etc. etc.  Then why
aren't they always the same length?

My ears (even if Steve does not trust them) tell me that the critics
were superficial.  I do not want to say the solos were ALL different,
but somehow they sound different from performance to performance - the
inflections, perhaps?
