Back in the day, I loved this period. In hindsight,however,the arrangements to all the songs kind of have a "sameness" to them, dynamically going to only one level, and rather rushed (too much booger sugar, not enough boogie woogie)! Worst of all, perhaps due to the acoustics of playing in so many open air ego-domes, Charlie is less tight than I ever remember hearing him. I'

Yup. The one and only. I've always been curious about the origin of this song myself. Whenever it's referred to in print, it's followed with "a Johnny Winter song". Dunno how accurate that is.

Sweet Black Angel, Ft Worth '72. Sounds like they almost had an idea of how the arrangement should go. A case could also be made for the Philly '81 setlist.

I'd probably skip this and trade for a bootleg, I mean, it's so unauthentic and I'd really rather hear what went down, warts and all.

I 2nd that - especially in reference to the electric ones. Highway 61, Blonde On Blonde, and John Wesley Harding all have an immediacy, more of a "room sound" than a tarted up studio etch-a-sketch.

Not to further muddy the waters, but... There is a guy who runs a site listed on the links section.
