Midnight Rider
 
Just recently got Bon Jovi Live from Stockholm 1993!

Excellent show,the songs were all preformed with such power.

Also this show is home to probaly the best version of Wanted i've ever heard with the Midnight Rider intro.

.Probaly a silly question.But who's inspired Jon to cover this song?Who orignally sang it?

I think it's a song by the Allman Brothers, and the little part that Bon Jovi have usually done is only a small part of it I think, and generally Jon mixes it up a bit. That Stockholm version is one of the best I've heard myself too.

Cheers Thomas!

Apparently there's another Midnight Rider-Wanted from the Keep The Faith tour!

Dont know which show,but my mate told me they did it twice that tour.

I've heard it from a few shows, even from a Richie solo show

Yah I think it was just carried over for when Richie did it during his Stranger promo tour. Unless they were doing it New Jersey era, not sure.

Hmm. I never knew there was a version with Jon on vocals, I've only heard the Richie version which I think is AMAZING...

My husband is a fan of the Allman Brothers Band and even he thinks that Richie's version kicks ass. Richie has the perfect voice to sing it.

Even? I'd guess that Richie has played it more times at his shows than with the band ;o

Yes but it was done more then a few times during the KTF tour, most of the times its just not there on the setlist altough it was played as intro

Well I've only heard one from a Richie show but a couple from Bon Jovi shows, can only give my opinion based on the limited bootlegs I've heard/seen.
