<<She should have just stuck with Gabriel and My Secret Place as the opener, and totally shelved the Billy Idol/Tom Petty thing. yikes, that was embarrassing. Some late night partying should be kept to yourself and not recorded for posterity! Although I LOVE Cool Water. Willie works on that song.>>
And nothin's better than a working Willie! :~) I agree with all of the above, and although I LOVE Gabriel's voice, the dry ethereal sound of it is so much like Joni's that it's sometimes hard to delineate the two. I would guess this one works better solo as opposed to duo. One of the reasons that the duet w/Nelson is so great is the contrast between their vocal textures, plus the fact that the song has a "desert" feel to it anyway and Willie fits that mood.
