Not to go off-topic, but I don't usually like Gypsy live either. So much better on the album. With the notable exception of the acoustic AHI version.

I have to agree. I love hearing Sara live but it does sound rushed, doesn't it? Especially when they did it on the SYW tour and Stevie's vocals are WAY too loud. The recorded version has a subtle, underlying power that is completely stripped from the stage version.
