Message: [QUOTE="storrsroars, post: 4755827, member: 2500"] I was in a strange mood wanting to revisit Flo & Eddie's "Moving Targets" album, during which their sped-up version of "Elenore" was included. So I sought out the original, figuring I'd only find the recorded single or album cut, or a lip-synch version on some variety show. But then I found this - an actual live performance that's spectacular for both the harmonies and Jim Barbata simply having the time of his life on the kit. There's a short intro where Howard Kaylan gives a condensed version of the band's struggles with the label, leading to Kaylan writing "Elenore" as a joke. After he heard the completed single, he acknowledge that the production (which included a theramin and instruments not used on this live version) was incredible, and even though nobody got the joke, it resulted in 2:20 of pop perfection.
