Maybe, yeah...still had I been there I would have probably been quite pleased.

Apples and Oranges in my view.  They are, mostly, playing different songs.  Even the lyrics aren't totally shared.  Lou Reed's version truly smokes while the CJ's let you enjoy their understated, but excellent, version.

I didn't like te studio version and don't like this any better.

I've always found her style to
seem kind of mopey. It sounds like she's perpetually bummed out. To me anyway.

True, but I prefer this version to the CJ's studio version, for some reason.

Interesting that you use the term "England" instead of "Great Britain"...  my Scottish relatives think you are a moronic jerk who is the result of intense inbreeding...

we are a long ways from 1750, poacher, so make all the excuses and rationalizations for yourself that you wish...

the studio version of this cover is from a truly magnificent album...  everybody in my hotel room loves it...

Cool!!  From a live song that sounds like Lou Reed to a live song that was written by Lou Reed!!  

Love this song in both VU and CJ trim... : )

The Trinity Sessions version of Sweet Jane is 10x better. The acoustics in that Toronto church are amazing and work perfectly for Sweet Jane.

I like her voice, but it comes off a few notches lower than what I would expect.  Just once it would be nice to see her amp it up a bit.

  Note to self:
Hire Mr Fixit as a sound man next time he's in KC....he likes bumping up the lead vocals.

It was live in the sense that it was recorded live off the floor, not multitracked, but there wasn't an audience there, so I hesitate to call it a 'live' album.

 
No wonder the crowd was so quiet - I thought they were just in a dream-state. {#Think}
