Winterland is definitely not overrated. If it was played that night then it's very likely the song's definitive version. Backstreets, Prove it, The Fever, Point Blank, She's the One, Quarter to Three... Even the version of The Promise that comes as a bonus track on the Crystal Cat boot is probably the song's definitive version.
You can all read about my opinions on the definitive live version of every song from Bruce's Archive Series and elsewhere by clicking this link: -definitive-version-of-every-song-from-springsteens-archive-series/
Richmond Va. on the The Rising tour was pretty good...A guy held up a sign that read "My band just broke up - please play Backstreets"...Bruce took the sign and read it and paused and then looked at Roy and the piano keys began...Midway through the song Bruce looked at the guy and said..."You know it's tough when your band breaks up"....I'll never forget that one.
this hasn't been the first time of pandora doing this to me, however I'm kind of sick of it happening. I was listening to my favorite playlist today when one of the best songs came on. However, it's not the original anymore... instead it plays the live version, and like no offense, but I'm not a fan of hearing people talking and screaming in the background or beginning of songs. So I go to look for the original and it still is added but now only radio??? What's the point of having pandora premium for years if songs keep popping off my playlist? Unlimited replays until they decide one day to remove and change songs. The whole point of getting away from Radio and switching to Pandora was to not have ads and to listen to your favorite songs as many times you want. I was fine paying for that for the longest time but now I think I'd rather go back fully to CDs... Wondering if anyone else has this issue or if there is a better option or way around this?
I agree this is very annoying. It happens to me with a number of different songs and artists. For instance I just asked it to play My Cherie Amor and it plays a live version. It happens soo much that it prompted me to do a google search to see if other people have the same problem. I thought maybe I can change something in settings. Instead I found this thread. This also happens with Lewis Capaldi a lot its annoying. Please pretty please fix. Or atleast add a way to ask for the original if a different version plays. Thank you.
Sometimes I like the live version of a song better than the studio recording, or vice versa. Sometimes I love a song when it's done by one artist but I really don't like another artists version of the same exact song.
I don't want to thumbs down the song because I enjoy it when it's the version that I actually like and I don't want pandora to think that I don't like that song, when really, I just don't like that version...
I have been a pro "paid" user for a long time and I wanted to share my opinion. I hate (strong word) re-edited versions of songs. I would rather not hear the song at all if it is not the original. Many feel this way. Why can you not offer a feature to exclude re-edited versions and maybe live versions?
Just re-released but only if re-recorded by only a portion of original members. In other words, songs that were re-done for streaming and not the original recordings. I don't care about censoring one way or the other. Thanks for replying.
I'd recommend visiting our Feature Request board with this suggestion. You can either post a new message for this idea or expand on the current idea for live version here: Exclude Live Performance Versions of Songs
Is there an option to disable cover songs? For example, I like Garth Brooks and would like to hear his songs, but not his songs being played/covered by "Books Jefferson"... I feel like if I click the thumbs down for Brooks Jefferson, it will also think I dont like Garth Brooks songs, since they are very similar...
This remaster album is AWFUL. Someone added a ton of reverb to it for reasons I cannot fathom. It is horrible to listen to and literally hurts my brain. I don't want to thumbs down it because a) I'd have to thumbs down every single track played from this album individually and b) I like these songs, just not this AWFUL remastered version. I'm pretty sure if I thumbs down them, it will take all of these songs off of my station, not just the ones from this album, since they are all the same songs, just with different audio mixing.
But then if you thumbs down two live versions of the same artist you will stop hearing the artist completely. This could create a problem if you still like the artist but can't stand live versions like me.
Additionally, I do see you are upgraded to Pandora Premium - with this level of subscription you can always create your own customized playlists where you can pick and choose what songs you want to hear in your listening session. Going this route will allow you only select studio versions of tracks, and leave out the live versions you don't actually want to hear.
I don't want to make my own playlist that's too much work and boring since you now know every song that will play. Even though most of your stations pretty much end up being like a playlist as they repeat the same songs over and over.
Actually I think this has been asked here before (I'm too lazy to chase down the link), but it never hurts to bump a good topic. I agree with selecting the NY '73 versions, but I'd go with the 29th over the 28th, very nice heavy vibe.
I really like the October 3rd 1972 version on japan . Instrumentally there are better versions but this one is my favorite simply because plant hits all the high notes of the studio version . I also really like. The one from Seattle 73 when jones as had to switch to piano because the melotron broke down st Louis 75 is another one I really like .
Really like the one from the 2nd knebworth show . Plant gives what I think is his best vocal for that song post 73. I really enjoy the 2nd knebworth show despite it being quite rough instrumentally . Plant gives a very strong vocal performance from start to finish I think it's one of his best post 72
Bonzo throws in some of his best fills and drum work when this song kicks off in the rock section. And I just can't ever get enough of his use of his tymp blasts in this song. Love Seattle 73. Bonzo's performance probably makes this one my favorite version.
Agreed! This whole gig is great. But it just makes me think "Where are the fucking soundboards for these shows just prior to MSG?" You know they have to exist. Boston, Baltimore, Pittsburg...c'mon, what the hell man...who's hoarding these?
I've always loved this version. Page was struggling for the first half of this night, but I think that struggling benefited the song. His playing here is softer and more careful, and that vulnerability/gentleness perfectly matches the mood of the arrangement as well as what the song is all about. And Robert really shines on this one. There are certainly stronger, more assured versions on other nights in 75 but this one is tops for me.
Oct 3 Japan and Seattle 73 are two of my fav versions. I also love Oct 2 version, warts and all. I grew up with the Oct 2 show tho (since high school in the 80s) so there's some bias from nostalgia there.
One of my favorites is from the Jan. 22, 1973 show. The intimate atmosphere in the arena with the band playing in front of a small, appreciative English crowd heightens the emotional nature of the song, and the professional recording helps convey the feeling of being there with them.
I may be the only one who likes this, but I love JPJ's organ on the 12-16-72 performance. Something must have been wrong with the mellotron (thankfully). The Year of Led Zeppelin site, which I love, describes the band's playing as almost drunk during TSRTS and The Rain Song. Maybe? Jimmy flubs the ending a bit, but that organ from Jones is beautiful
Using the terminal in Debian/Ubuntu, how does find the version of the system's TeX Live distribution? I don't have tlmgr so I would need to need to do this either through apt-get, aptitude, or some command that invokes the --version flag. Thanks.
I want to ask about draft version, I have made some changes inside my board view code, and I created new version then I deployed the board view to it, How I can test the changes before pushing the version to live any other way than preview inside board setup ?
So they all have a live option - Correct ? The feature i really want is just to right click and create a text document or a folder on the desktop as well as a standard layout - everything on the left side out of site unless i click menu or add to the panel at the bottom, throw in some useful features-packages that Debian don`t have.
I tried that already but did end up at Debian.
Deb is OK but can be a bit unstable and is bloated with games etc. that i dont need. Ubuntu ruined my last system so if it dont have a live test version i wont even try it, but want the specific 2 features i mentioned along with being fully functional specifically with CAPTCHA, some Linux distros wont work with the image ones like Ebay`s CAPTCHA. I just tried MX and it would not work with it, the images would not display so it could not be completed so no access to ebay.
The only way I can explain your situation is that you downloaded the DVD version with lots of preinstalled software. However, normal Debian has only the most necessary stuff. It does not have any extras. It does not even have LibreOffice, etc, not to mention games or anything like that.
I am new to Power apps and I have a requirement to show Live version number on my canvas app and environment label on the title. I am using below formula to get version number but this is giving me the max version number irrespective of whether it is live or not.
