Favorite versions of On the Border songs
Being the celebration of On the Border, I felt it was appropriate I made this thread!
Anyways, what are your favorite versions of all the songs in "On the Border"? They can be any version, whether a cover, or live version, or solo performance, etc. Can't wait to see your answers! Here are mine:
1) Already Gone- 1979 Osaka- The pitch just makes it epic, raw guitars
2) You Never Cry Like a Lover- 1976 Sydney (Soundboard)- Just amazing overall and great quality and guitar sounds!
3) Midnight Flyer- 1976 Sydney- Great pitch, Joe Walsh's slide. And another highlight is Randy saying "Maybe I'll go to Abilene, or Maybe Santa Fe".
4) My Man- No other version known
5) On the Border- No other version
6) James Dean- 1976 Houston- Good quality, guitars sound great on this one, and Frey with shades just makes it awesome!
7) Ol' 55- 1974 Don Kirshner's- Nice version overall, great performance on vocals
Is It True- No other version
9) Good Day in Hell- 1976 The Forum (Hotel California 40th Anniversary Edition)- Great quality, amazing slide by Felder, though my only gripe is that this may have been overdubbed
10) Best of My Love- 1979 Osaka- The higher pitch just makes it more poignant for me.
