The Sensational Alex Harvey Band.

 

 

Great stuff. The Impossible Dream album is my favourite album from SAHB.

 

Visions Of Johanna, one of my favourite Dylan numbers, performed live at an unknown show and date.  This is a wonderful iteration of this classic.

This one I listen to often before hitting the sack. Clapton really makes the guitar wail and cry. After he stops singing around the 3 minute mark it becomes pure goose-bump inducing.

 

  

That was truly exceptional.

Thanks for that wonderful rendition of that classic folksong, bannork.  

 

Here's Grateful Dead's live version performed at the Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY on February 21, '71.

What a great number, bobandyson.    Do you happen know what album this is off of?  I can imagine other gems on the same disc.
