Title: Bermuda Highway
Post by: buster douglas on May 26, 2009, 11:41 PM
I have only ever heard the album version of this track.  I was wondering-- is it ever played live with the backing of the full band?
Would love to hear a supersonic version of it and if it's been done, what recording/bootleg would offer me the best quality?

There's a really good solo version on this show:

I don't recall any full band versions though.

That is one of my all time favorite recordings.

Bermuda Highway is one of my favorite songs as well.  In the 4 shows I went to in '08 they only played it at RCMH - just listened to it and I didn't hear anyone but Jim playing.  He also did a nice version solo at the Newport Folk Festival.  It was played a few times but not that often on the 2008 tour.

Wow - just listened to the the 2001 KVRK radio version and it is dramatically slower in tempo than the 2 cuts mentioned above.
