The recorded version absolutely.
Have a video somewhere of them playing it live in Philly with jake Clemons a few days after Clarence died. Ed is on organ and glen on guitar. It's a doozy.

Think he’s headed down that way next year.

This new album is a game changer. Like a final skin being shed before the new one. One song on here in particular has become my new favourite of his. Looking forward to his next one. Which he’s already recording.

That record and burn the maps were all th same bunch of songs and almost was a double album. Yet somehow I prefer burn the maps. Glen said of the cost that ‘it was the sound of a band that had run out of ideas’. He’s had enough by the time it was released.

Interesting, especially since I think it’s their best song. Even beautiful with Glen in the elevator:

F

This is a solo tour. No band at all.

Except LA with the LA philharmonic. He won’t tell us what that’s about.

Finally listened to this album today on a bit of a drive. I enjoyed it, particularly the opener (which dime posted directly above).

I mentioned earlier that when I saw him in 2016 he did a magnificent version of ACDC's Down-payment Blues. Well, listeninhg today, again, particularly Roll on Slow, for the first time I noticed how much his voice sometimes reminds me of Bon Scott.

Greater praise I cannot give,
