I like when they changed the words to Crackin' Up on ABB and called it "She Saw Me Coming".

Exactly!

They have a million songs with those chords - the 12 bar chords, you know

I don't think SSMC and Crackin' Up are that alike.

It's only Rock n' Roll - Love You Live

Couldnt agree more. Two songs (i like Negrita on B&B also) that does come alive on stage in 1973.

Um, it's not a '12 bar' sequence, actually.

Hm, it's another song live but i love the studio version as well

The 2006 is the first MR which wasn't better.

My impression is that in 2006 Rambler suffered from being played too often.The same thing goes for the '89/'90 versions.During the '99 tour it was played all of the time,however,it was a short tour and it didn't get worn out.It wasn't played enough in '95.In 2006,it started out great (Boston 1-13-'06) but,it fell below the standard they set for it as the year went on.The version from the opening night of the fall tour was solid and they definitely redeemed themselves on Rambler the last two shows in L.A. and Vancouver.

Out Of Control obviously.
Love In Vain
Shine a light
Dancing with Mr D

Songs better studio can't captur live

Rocks Off
Monkey Man
Loving Cup
Love is Strong
Lady Jane MEZ

I agree with everything James Lynn just said, right down to the MEZ

I suppose that I'm in the minority on Rocks Off and Shattered but,I prefer the live versions,many of them anyway.Rocks Off on 1-15-'06 was great.Loving Cup live is very close to the studio version.

Not the same sequence, but the same chords

... and same rhythm, same fills, you could sing one on top of the other!

Vice-versa that for me.

Out Of Control is their last song which they topped live (and first since 81).
