(8) Lights of Taormina (6:09)

[Simon]

Water of Love intro?
Donnegan's Gone riff?

Yes for the intro, no for the riff

I meant the guitar riff (melody) at the beginning sounds like the melody of DG. :-)

As Dusty rightly mentioned early on, I also find the similarities with Save the last dance (he played it with Ben E. King, RIP, in the 80ies) so striking, I was singing the lyrics  of it. And there is Dylan in it as well.

the best version of "Lily, Rosemary & the Jack of Hearts" I've heard is the from Joan baez's live album "from every stage" :
 
 

far better than Dylan's one imho


as for Taormina, it's not my fav one on the album. a litlle bit boring for my taste, while the Dylan'song is my fav in Baez's stuff

It's only me or musically almost all Dylan covers are better than originals? Of course his records have a huge charm in it, but anyway.

yes agree. i'd say Dylan is a poet, not a musician
but I like the 61 album with Bloomfield and Kooper, or the Band era, and of course albums with mark

I wonder why not played on this tour ?
I didn't look at all the European set lists though
so maybe I missed it ?

[ingridswing]

Unfortunately not played indeed. I love this song

[Marijo58]

Yes Ingrid, me too I've loved Lights of Taormina from the first moment I've heard it!! Indeed strange that MK didn't put it on the Setlist!!!

You mean that Guy didn't put it on the list? 

[silentguy]

Yeah, my fav song on tracker.

So not sure to be happy that I didnt miss it, or sad that it was never played.

Also Beryl, not played but on that German TV show ?

Do we have a list of the not played songs ?

I know I never heard Rivertown at any of my shows.

Can someone make a list of not played Tracker songs ?

Basil

Long Cool Girl
LOT
Silver Eagle 
Each of them absolutely amazing.  I really love Tracker...

Hello Border_reiver, is it really Guy who is deciding what kind of Setlist they should have? Then why didn't he put TOTT???

[ingridswing]

MK is deciding, Guy said that in his forum a couple of times

Guy isn't consistent with his explanations.   This is a reply to a query about setlists from yesterday:

"I generally decide the set and run it past MK".

Yes that is what I assumed Ingrid. No one is able to tell Mark what to play during a Gig. He has always been the Boss!! Just look at the videos on YouTube. He is just like a Conductor directing his Musician by looking at them or using hand signs..
