Texas King Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Which version of song Witch Hunt is better for you: original, out of album Moving Pictures or a live version out of Show of Hands?I think a live version is much better and musically 'richer' with the Lifeson's great solo at the end and with much better synth sounds.BTW I found this Rush song kind of underappreciated on this forum among members. From Moving Pictures Red Barchetta is so praised, while Witch Hunt is so overlooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Moving Pictures Red Barchetta is so praised, while Witch Hunt is so overlooked. What about the versions on the Grace Under Pressure Tour, Snakes And Arrows and Time Machine Tours? And that version on A Show Of Hands is about 43 seconds missing from the beginning. For the longest time, the Grace Under Pressure version was my favorite. Now I'm not so sure. The one from Snakes And Arrows is pretty cool too. But that version from Grace Under Pressure is really sweet. (But that whole show is all kinds of awesome.)

fraroc Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 The GUP tour version is one of the best performances of music ever. The way that the main riff just crescendoes into the keyboard part is just, ORGASMIC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbobby10 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Ive never been a big fan of Witch Hunt, never pleased me. But the P/G version of it still blows my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket ignites Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 The live versions have such a great atmosphere. I do love the studio track though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
