Had she been performing a long series of dates with not much time for vocal rest in between?
That would do that to a voice.

Well normally I would agree with that...if I were discussing a show...but this show was recorded to be sold....and going with your assertion, why not tape an earlier show in the tour? Would solve the tired voice issue. That was a 57 year old Ann on that CD. Listening to those songs, sung that way, tells me Ann should drop them from future sets....either that, or piece a CD together from different shows during the your, picking the best performances...sure, you lose the continuity of a single show, but, at least it wouldn't sound old and tired.
