Rhythm Of The Saints is my all-time favorite record by anyone (well, along with Exile on Main Street by the Stones). However, I don´t listen to it much because I made a compilation cd with live versions (the ones I could find) of all of those songs. In my humble opinion, that record is MUCH, MUCH better live. I´m not a recording expert, so I don´t know if I can articulate what the difference isâ?¦but the studio recordings seem veryâ?¦antiseptic and lifeless in comparison to how they sounded later on stage, for every song. Anyway else feel this way or have any thoughts? Thanks!

By the way, I´ll had that, for the Graceland album, I vastly prefer the studio cuts. Odd, since Halee/Simon did both.

Feel like uploading it so we can hear? I´d Love to hear live a live version of Spirit Voices. Think he did it on the 2001 tour.....?

I was just thinking the same thing. Didn´t really take to ROTS after Graceland until I started listening to CP 91 album. That is my absolute favourite alltime PS CD and ROTS songs on it are fantastic:-) As is TITD and SOS

Yeah, Central Park was great. Glad to hear others feel the same. I´ll see if I can post my boot of Can´t Run But and Further To Fly from ´96 - great. I never liked Futher to Fly until I heard it live. I don´t have Spirit Voices unfortunately - how ´bout a Paul live box set!

I adore the CP album. The video of it is great as well. Paul sounded so great. The band was amazing, and Paul seemed to be having a wonderful time.
