The Long Highway - Studio version

[primi]

On the contrary on the official STP single it is listed as 'Going Home'. And I have to correct myself as it was recorded for Taratata, Italy in november 2000. Another odd thing about this particular Local Hero version is that although played stripped down MK used the Les Paul instead of a strat (at least that is what my ears tell me), the only other time that happened I know of is Music for Montserrat 1997.

I don't suppose it's possible to listen to this version anywhere? Being official it will not be found on..... wait a second... I have it lol! My collection must be bigger than I thought.

he played Wild theme on the Les Paul during the whole TV/radio promo tour in late 2000

Those were the times... put out  as an appetizer for the STP album, that maxi-CD had four tracks on it: What It is, Let's See You, Long Highway and Camerado.. pure quality!

I also fell in love with The Long Highway studio Version immediately with the first listen and agree that it is one of his very best songs! Connecting it live with Going Home back in 1996 was really a brilliant idea and a phantastic  show closer. How surprised I was at the Hamburg show to get a new song at the end of an already more-than-phantastic concert! June 8th 1996 best concert I ever attended, I guess...  Hey joko Servus und Moin!
