I cannot tell you how much good it did my heart when they pulled this one out, so slinky and sophisticated with the classic SD sting in its tail. Never thought I'd hear this one live.

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this. I have at least one live version of every song Don and Walt have played on tour since 1993 and was REALLY hoping they'd finally play this live. Very, very cool.

I think I heard this song at Fox Theater Detroit on July 16 2011

They opened with this number in St Paul (after the instrumental opener)
-
They've never done the following songs live: From Can't Buy A Thrill: Kings, Only A Fool Would Say That, Fire In The Hole, Change Of The Guard and Turn That Heartbeat Over Again. From Countdown to Ecstasy: King Of The World or Barrytown (since the '70s). From Pretzel Logic: Through With Buzz, With A Gun or
Charlie Freak. From KL: Rose Darling, Your Gold Teeth II, Any World That I'm Welcome To or Throw Back the Little Ones. From EMG: Negative Girl, Blues Beach, Green Book, or Pixeleen.

@RevGuitarzilla79 There are many songs from the SD catalog, that they've yet to perform live. True Companion and Here at The Western World are not among them. They did True Companion as the show opener during their 1994 tour and Here At The Western World during the Fagen Band solo tours of 2006. I'm a hardcore fan as well.

Arguably the greatest SD song. Sure wish they would do King of the World Live. I think Count Down to Ecstasy is the litmus test for hard core SD fans. If you are a real SD fan you really appreciate this album. It might be your favorite.

i was already pissed they skipped my state for this tour but seeing that they play this and "the bear" on this tour made it worse. guess i'll just have to wait for a bootleg of this tour like "caves".

Sounds a bit like Zappa's 1972 band (and this is a compliment). Glad they are performing this after all these years! Great song!

Excellent quality! What did you use for this? Thanks for the post!
Yea u can tell true fans, we go bonkers for the rarities. Ive heard them play every single song live the many times ive seen em besides true companion and here at the western world. Maybe someday??? Id also love to hear em do fagens new frontier

@RevGuitarzilla79 "...true companion and here at the western world...new frontier" I'd kill to hear them live. Those and I.G.Y. as well.
