Why - Midnight Special

[bucklind17]

I just watched a video of "Why" on YouTube from The Midnight Special and was wondering if this exists in mp3 form anywhere? I love the ending harmonies with Christine, Stevie and Lindsey and am only familiar with the album version of the song. I'm really interested in any version of the song with the three of them, if it exists, especially with the sound on this video being a little distorted. Thanks!

Here is the vid, if anyone hasn't seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbI1I43_yxo

You're in luck. There are about four dozen recordings of "Why" with the Nicks configuration from King Biscuit to Trod Nossel to Rumours rehearsals to tour performances, even four or five video clips of it. (It used to be a set staple.)

macfan57 might consent to post a bunch for you.

Thanks for the info! I noticed this song was on quite a few setlists, just wasn't sure if any recordings with that lineup existed. Quite encouraging to know!

Someone needs to post some of these things for you, bucklind. I'll look around what's left of my stash & try to find some Whys.

I'll try to post some of the live versions of "Why" that I have during the next few days. I've just been a bit busy & I don't check the Ledge as much as I used to. By the way, I don't have an mp3 of the Midnight Special version, just the video clip.

I actually found some live shows to download a few pages back in the Rumours forum, including some that had this song on it, so I think I am set. Particularly loving the one from Wallingford (so close to my hometown it drives me nuts), the balance of the harmony is gorgeous. Thanks again!
