Terrific cover of a great Dylan love song:

All I Really Wanna Do

The original:

Dylan - All I Really Wanna Do

"Important Messege: in the first 30 seconds you cant see anything, but after you can see our bob dylan"

There's a staggering amount of Dylan out there. Here's a good later day Dylan reaching back into the songbook:

With God On Our Side - 1988 Bridge School Benefit

Elton John - Candle in the Wind (1997)

It's the only time he's ever performed the song live. As someone pointed out on the page, it's amazing how well he performed.

Looks like jdw beat me to most of the good Bruce stuff. John - I don't know if you just collect Boss video, but I have most of the stuff you mentioned on CD - including all those knockout versions of Thundercrack (usually paired back-to-back with Seaside Bar Song).

Anyway, here's another one. Not good video quality, but an electric performance.

Tunnel Of Love, St. Louis, April 1988

And since Metallica played a role in one of the original incarnations of tOA:

I love Patty Loveless...

Here I Am

Lonely too long

You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive

Her band was so tight on that tour, and he voice was just off the charts.

Duets:

Out Of Control Raging Fire with Travis Tritt

My Kind Of Woman, My Kind Of Man with Vince Gill

A freaking awesome where one totally gets an idea of how awesome her voice is:

Pretty Polly with Ralph Stanley

Oh god... I think I can die and go to heaven after this one:

Even Cowgirls Get The Blues

Some great Waylon Jennings:

Mental Revenge

This Time

A Good Hearted Woman

Oh boy... my favorite Waylon song, totally vintage:

You asked me to

One last think before getting some sleep. Buck Owens and the Buckaroos:

Together Again

Love's Gonna Live Here Again

There is a ton of stuff from this show up posted by sleepycreek. But I had to go with these two.

So freaking much great Buck:

Crying Time

Act Naturally

Buck and Don having a blast with the double Telecasters:

Sam's Place

Don's instrumental:

Cajun Fiddle

Don Rich ruled it so much, and he and Buck meshed together to absolute perfection.

I don't know why, but I dig this version from the CMT Duets show:

So I'm in the middle of looking at Who clips and stumbled across this:

So Lonely

Back before the were big here and you could only here then on KROQ. :)

Trying to stick to vintage clips rather than stuff from the Unplugged set:

Off The Pretenders first album:

Up the Neck

Tattooed Love Boys

Stop Your Sobbing

Kid

Brass In Pocket

There are a slew of other clips of songs off the album that made the 90s unplugged set. While they're okay to me, the original version are the ones for me.

I have a big soft spot for that album. A girl friend of the time was a huge Chrissie Hynde fan, and an cassette tape of that was playing on auto-reverse mode during a certain rather memorable first for me.

"Ehhhhh! Too much information, jdw!!!"

:P

Hey... at least I didn't liquor up my first. Chrissie over the forces of booze and dope... I was an honorable mid-teen! :P

Okay... to help clear that thought from your head, here's:

Nobody's Fault But Mine

Where Plant is quite molten.

Also from the same Knebworth show (and Zep DVD):

Achilles Last Stand

Bonzo is off the charts, Jones is strong on bass, and Plant is game on vocals (it's not a vocal calling for intensity). Page is a little worse for the wear from the smack, especially on the solo. :) But it's still fun to hear a favorite live, especially for Bonham's wicked drumming.
