Here is a version of Released from the Festival Express tour (1970?). One of Manuel's greatest vocal performances! Still makes me tear up, particularly the "Now yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd/A man who swears he's not to blame/
All day long I hear him shouting so loud/Just crying out that he was framed" verse. Powerful.


Yes, and the Fleet Foxes + Wilco live cover is even better. Jeff Tweedy sings the first verse, Robin Pecknold sings the second, and Tweedy ends it but they all harmonize on the choruses.

This thread begins and ends with Jimi. No love for GnR's Knockin' on Heaven's Door?

I generally prefer Dylan to be performed by Dylan, but Tangled by Jerry Garcia is a big exception. Some songs just cannot be covered well. I would put Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues on that list, and, personally, I would put Hard Rain there as well.
