By way of example, assorted versions on the initial creation of "Are You Happy Now"! But on "Summer Wind" I think he's been fairly consistent. Similarly, "You Again," "Blue Divide" and "Castaway." That may be the sum total. Lisa Davis Quoting Jamie Younghans / John McDonnell : > Interesting biographical interpretation.

This is a new venue, and the first time I've been there. It was really nice! Big and new and clean, no smoking, a restaurant attached and two bars in the room, and might I add...the restrooms were exquisite. :-) For this show they had tables for 8 set up in front of the stage. Richard opened, which surprised me...played for about an hour. He was pleased that he got lots of requests for the new stuff instead of the old stuff. Someone even asked for "that crumb cakes in heaven song", LOL!! That's my new name for it now. :-) In addition to songs from Vuelta, he also played "On a Sea of Fluer-de-Lis", "Fishing", and "Reunion Hill" (with Tracy). After the break, Tracy came out and played an hour with Jim Henry accompanying her on many instruments and doing vocals as well. She played several songs from the new CD. The new songs were SO good! Oh my gosh..."Gypsy Rose" and "The Verdant Mile" both had me in tears! She and Jim were really, really good together. Then Richard joined them on "Pancho and Lefty" for the last song. The crowd was light, but to be expected I guess at a new place on a Sunday night. I was disappointed at how quiet everyone was. We didn't even command encores! Still it was a great time!
