In the new compilation "Solos, Sessions and Encores", this track is said
to come from the CBS Record Convention in 1984.

In the SRV Boxed Set, there was exactly the same track and on the third
disc (most recent songs) and it was supposed to come from the live in
Albuquerque, 1989.

I assume there is a mistake with the SRV box. Can anyone confirm this ?

By the way, does anyone here know from which performance the "Leave My
Girl Alone" on the "Real Deal Greatest Hits 2" disc was extracted ?
In fact, I bought a really nice SRV live CD, "the rocker", from Arena
Records (really great sound quality) and there is absolutely no details
where it was recorded from. Actually I'm not even sure that all tracks
come from the same performance. I'm pretty sure though that it contains
the same version of "Leave My Girl Alone" as in the "Real Deal Greatest
Hits 2".

I know this website but, as far as I know, it "only" provides
informations about live performances and "import" CDs, not about regular
commercial CDs. There is no way to obtain informations about a live
track on a particular disc.

The new album has the wrong info in this case.... Going down is from a 1989
show, and not 1984. Stevie didn't play this song in the early/mid 80's.

Hope this will help.....

Yep, on Bob Willmot database, Goin' Down is not supposed to be part of
the setlist of the 1984 performance in Honolulu. It's not very smart
from Sony/Epic to make such a rude mistake. Here is what the booklet
says :

"The next track is one of this set's true highlights : a burning live
jam with british rock guitar god Jeff Beck on Goin' Down, recorded at
the CBS Records Convention in Honolulu in 1984 ; this performance has
long been regarded as a much sought after gem."

Well... now... this note looks really silly.
