Come Together live...

I've caught several well recorded versions..but as a cover what do you think?

Seems kinda terrible to me. Like a funk jam pasted on a song with no regard to the structure or lyrical content of it. Reminds me of why he doesn't like others covering his matertal.

I heard it too. Come Together is one of my favorite Beatles songs and i thought the musical arrangement was okay, but the vocals sounded terrible. Not a fan of this cover.

His original way of doing it with the previous band was awesome. I've never heard him do it like this.

Change it one more time..
