She is so freaking HOT.

Why didn't this get on that record?
(Don't get me wrong - I love 'Not Fade Away', too)

UGH. WHY IS SHE SO ATTRACTIVE?

Awesome.

This is one of the most FUN, LIGHT, ENERGETIC and FREE SPIRITED live performances that I've ever seen Stevie give. It's just simply delicious !!! Many songs in Stevie's amazing body of work tend to be insightful, melancholy and sublime. It's great to hear her cut loose on this rockin number. It is also important to note that Waddy Wachtel on guitar played this tune with Linda Ronstadt for years on her tours in the 1970's. He may have even played on the album when Linda recorded it.

Can anyone post an MP3 of this? I'd love it for my reception play list.

I wish there was a version of this available without the intro by Chris Isaak, just the song itself. She does an awesome job with it!

I like to see add this tune to her set list and dump Rock and Roll.

The opening reminds me of Ed Sullivan show.

I'm still not sure if I even actually like It's So Easy. But her version seems to be in my head 24/7 lately... You'd think that would make it easy to decide, but turns out, nope! Jury's still out on that one. It is darn catchy though, and her vocals are just stellar. I like live performances like this, which really show off her vocal prowess. Some of her own melodies are such that she has a tendency to just shout-sing them and they come off as slightly tuneless by comparison (I'm lookin at you, Stand Back!). This song is a breath of fresh air in that regard.

Anther classic tune I love to hear Stevie cover is Sweet Dreams (Of You) by Patsy Cline or Emmylou Harris written by Don Gibson .I love this song.

Emmy is my favorite.

wow it was so great to hear Stevie sing this. Where did that voice suddenly come from? There were a few "well's" in there that reminded me of the RAL days...
