QuoteDoxa But it was beautiful to see Taylor with them back then. At best there were some truely memorable moments. Oh, and there were also Charlie, Bobby and Lisa still there... A sort of dream team of the modern times... - Doxa Yes! Perfectly said. It wasn't 1972 all over again, but it was sure a sweet taste of the old days.

Back in high school, my friends and I would laugh our asses off at the lyrics. Which is probably the point of the song anyway.

"On the occasion of the arrival of King Charles III and Queen Camilla in France, a state dinner is organized in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles this Wednesday evening. More than 150 people are expected. Actors, big bosses or athletes." so not the Versailles in Kentucky then?

I'm only just now seeing this. That's too bad. I liked Sam's book. And his write-up of the seeing the band on the 2014 Australia tour (a fb post). And let's not forget that's Sam playing the car horn on Country Honk.

Quotedcba Acc. to Glyn Johns in hos book all 3 Paris gigs were taped with the Mobile studio but faulty gear made the recordings unsusable. Alright but sheer logic might say they fied the Mobile in England and shipped it back to Germany to tape the last gigs of the tour to keep a souvenir of that 70 trek. I've read that book, and I completely forgot about that!

QuoteMelBelli He had his moments in 2013-14, to be sure. What I said comes from a place of reverence. I recently saw a clip of playing “Red House” in the late-‘80s. I was struck by how good he still was — and how differently and expansively he was able to improvise. He’s a long way from where he was then. First off, I should have ended my previous post with an "all due respect" va

QuoteMelBelli It was great for him to have been brought in from the wilderness. But it was also clear that he didn’t have much left in the tank.

Yeah, he sings his heart out on that one and let's not underrate his background vocals on In Another Land.

Would love another show (Philly maybe) from the 72 tour. And a show from the 70 tour. But I really doubt there’s a professional recording of one of those.

This should also include the Nov 26th Baltimore show as that was recorded by the band and is the source of Love in Vain on Ya Yas. (And maybe SFM too) Those four shows (Baltimore + the three NYC shows) represent the peak of rock and roll.

well the ya-ya's version is my favorite piece of recorded music ever, so that's my answer to this question. Taylor makes that guitar wail like a cry from the soul of a broken-hearted man. It was a perfect convergence that cannot be replicated.

QuoteDandelionPowderman The fade is perfection, for a producer that is. Leaving the listener longing for more always works. I'm a bit of a Taylor-ite, yet I agree with this. He's taking off to another level on that solo as it fades. It's like he's leaving this plane that we're on and ascending to a higher one.
