That was really nice.
The comments about the guy having many recordings is interesting.
I just saw Billy do this at the Ryman a couple months ago, one of the other guys sung it.
I first heard the Grateful Dead do it, never knew it was traditional until Billy did it.

Outstanding! The first time I heard that song was on a Don McLean album many years ago.

I forgot about this version! Thank you. I liked Sons, but as with all shows, they find some way to fuck it up and this one was no exception. They did play some great songs on there, though.

They tried stretching the show out further than it was capable of. I agree that the show at least had a good soundtrack.
