Diamond as big as the ritz on live CD?

Post by SeaNile »

I know I have this song on a live CD released by Jimmy. Am I nuts? What CD is it on?

TIA.

Never seen it released on a live cd. Maybe you heard it on radio margaritaville?

I'm sure there are some live versions floating around, but I have never seen one on a commercially released cd. Could you have bought a bootleg?

A number of concerts were released a couple of years ago including Auburn. It may be on one of those.

That may have been on the Barometer Soup Radio Hour which I believe was released as a limited edition CD.

You can look up this, and all songs, on BuffettNews's Song and Lyrics Database.

http://www.buffettnews.com/resources/songs/?song=172

It was played often in 2005, shown below, and also in 1995. The "live in..." cd's were from 2003 and 2004, so it appears it was not on any commercially released cd's.

By any chance did you record, trade, vine, or download one of these concert cd's?

Here's BN's concert trading forum: viewforum.php?f=29

And more specifically, if you hit "search" and type in 'diamond' in the "search for keywords" field, and click on 'Concert Trading' in the "search in forums" field, it brings up this:
