Very long version of "The Long Run;" Don and the other guitarist do simultaneous solos at one point. Anyone know who Don's guitar player is in this performance?

Do his concerts always start with that hilarious speech?
Don with Jeff Coffey. It sounds like the backing vocals are finally live.

Don sings "Take it Easy" in 2009. He's singing pretty well here (live!).

I haven't compared that to other performances, but it sounds like he's singing live.
I think he's singing live too. This is actually an interesting video because we get to see his rehearsal process. It seems like he doesn't bother singing much beyond the first and last verses in rehearsal. It also proves that many of the harmony vocals are actually prerecorded because the harmonies on the choruses and second verse sound exactly the same as they do in concerts with his road band even though the lineup of musicians is totally different.
I must say that, although I'll never get the chance to see Don live, I'd rather hear rough, occasionally out-of-tune singing than pre-recorded autotune'd stuff. I mean, Neil Young's singing isn't perfect even on studio albums, why should Don Felder's singing be perfect live? Don could sing live with acceptable results. Maybe he couldn't do those high wails in the middle of Witchy Woman, but they don't have to be there.
