Beautiful version! I've always loved that one. When Lindsey pipes in and sings.... Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice. I.Melt.

Thank you so much for posting this!!!! I had never heard it and it's absolutely beautiful---just Stevie and Lindsey, the way it sounds best.. I've got it full blast right now, and it's giving me shivers, especially Lindsey's guitar at the end.

Thank you again and again

Actually, the one from Buffalo on 5-15-03 is really good too.

Which, she always usually does on this song, and I don't like the sound of that. It slows it down too much, she has to lengthen the notes too much, and it sounds painful. The pacing of this song is very important. It has to trickle flow, and sparkle along the way, like a small waterfall, or a mountain creek. Continuous, but fairly mild.
But Stevie has always built a dam in that gypsy creek on live performances, trapping the water flow behind a wall, then letting it out too slowly, or too quickly, depending on the phrase... Sometimes it works for me, mostly it doesn't. Okay, I still like the crappy ones, but not in comparison to the studio, or what could be.
There are other Stevie live vocals that suffer from this ailment as well. Part of the reason is the loss of voice flexibility.

I haven't ever enjoyed a live Gypsy much, even back in the day (although there are some really creative ones that are astounding - in the way that "I can't believe she is doing that weird thing with the phrasing and notes, but it's really cool")
but this one kinda nails it for the modern Stevie voice, IMO.

The acoustic shortens the phrases and simplifies and precises them. It doesn't have to be a big monster production in this format, which frees her voice considerably - and we all know that Linds acoustic is a delight as well.

Lindsey's guitar work is soul mateingly perfect, genius, etc.

I know what you mean about this song. Especially painful to listen to, in my opinion, is the Mirage Tour version, which was commercially released. At the end, her voice sounds just awful. I never understand why they kept that song on the video and cut so many others. I know Gypsy was a hit but that version...yuck
