i can see both sides of ISA argument. it's a great song and was a showstopper in both cases at every show i've been at, with or without the backing band.

so i think it's a matter of personal preference and which arrangement hits you personally in the gut or you connect with. for me, it was a completely solo version with backing track. here is the version from one of the shows i was at -



i would also not put all rocking / electric songs in the same bucket: while it would be hard to argue that GYOW doesn't miss the band when performed with just a backing track, i suggest it's equally hard to argue against Come versions from OMS tour, which done completely solo with that minimal backing track, were some of the best versions of Come he ever performed.
