Came across a video on YT where the band is miming to their hit. It has the backing but the vocals are removed with the lead singer singing live. What this shows is that there was a multitrack available to the show to accomplish this. Too bad we never got to hear a true stereo mix from the master tape.

Yes all we have is Eric's DES. A shame.

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

That's a really groovy find Dave. Thanks for sharing the link!

About mid way through, There's a similar type of live version of Hitchin' A Ride by Vanity Fare.

<Dave> Someone please tell I-Heart Radio that St. Louis is not known as The Loo!
