Which version do you like better??

I think thier ORIGINAL version is mucho better..... I have it in analogue from thier concert in 1968.. The one they did live in 2005 (@ the same place) IS PURE GARBAGE!!!!!

Much slower paced,instruments dont sound as good,etc........... Complete crap!!

1968 LIVE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=becWr0vc6cA

2005 LIVE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX6J5-13c-0

Im sorry this isnt analog but you can still hear thier 1968 one...

..

I dunno Dude, Brian May sitting in the audience of the 2005 show, and he seemed pretty happy with it. I liked them both.

Now, "Layla"? I liked the "Derek and the Dominoes" version much better than the latter, slower version.

Ah man!!

Here is the biggest difference that I see between to two performances.

In the earlier performance, you had 3 performers who all aspired to be the show. None of them knew limits, their "ceiling" was infinite. The band was a trio.

In the later performance, the other two...Baker and Bruce, knew why they were there. They were there in support. It was a guitar show, with accompaniment.

Yes but the later performance sounds tinny and crappy digital crap.......

The first one is all analogue and goregous (Especailly when listening in analogue)
