Your favourite Rhiannon performance?

[Artemis]

I've been on a total Rhiannon kick lately, and I'm really curious as to which version of Rhiannon you all consider to be your favourite. I have about 20 versions of the song on my computer (Sad I know!) and I just can't get enough!

For me, it has to be either the Midnight Special version, which is just excellent in so many ways - the energy, her voice, the playing - it's all wonderful. It's the most played song on my itunes for a reason, I think it's utterly compelling.

Although, a close second has to be one of the versions I have on my PC. I don't know the specifics... but it's labeled as "Rhiannon Live 1980" and she's going "is that what you want?" near the end, it has so much energy and vocally, she's on fire. Whenever it comes on shuffle, I HAVE to listen to all of it.

I really love the versions with the kick ass guitar solo and Stevie's solo exorcisms. I only have one Rhiannon from Mirage, which I'm quite gutted about cause it's not very good quality. I even have one from the Tango tour which sounds awesome... but is of very poor quality D=

Probably the "Rosebud" one... the one where Lindsey is in the blue silk shirt? I also really like the Mirage tour version because of the ending guitar.

The short one.











No really, I like the single version, with all the extra guitar licks.

Rosebud, hands down! I can't pass it on my MP3 player, unless the circumstance is dire..lol!!!

Chicago-May 14,1980
The sound of Mick's drumming echoing off the walls, Lindsey's screaming guitar, Christine's haunting piano, John's spooky bass playing and ofcourse Stevie's incredible live vocal.

100% agree with you, Buttercookie This version is SUBLIME. They are so in a zone. Stevie is AMAZING. Lindsey's on fire. Even Mick looks impressed during the last minute, like he's witnessing ( and is a part of ) something really special.

I love the Dance dvd version. Yeah i know it isn't of one concertm but a mash up, and yes there are overdubs... but i love it all the same

as for me, i really really love The Mirage version. The way she changes "you don't change, baby i don't change, all the same, Rhiannon" and then she collapses to the floor. I love it.
