I'd like to dedicate this thread to some songs that in my opinion, were performed better live, than in the studio.

My bias may show based on the era of videos posted but in my opinion, most of todays artists are more performers and less pure singers.

Feel free to add your favorite live performances and opinions on the evolution of the music industry when considering this topic. I think this will be fun!

Have at it!

i see that they had L. Shankar and his double neck violin on that tour. must have been what? So?

yeah.  could be that one, too.
