Here's a pretty extraordinary version of the Spin Doctors' classic song "Cleopatra's Cat". An extended version of the song including a really sick keyboard solo from Ivan Neville at the end of the song. The line-up was: Chris, Mark and Aaron with Eran Tabib (guitar) and Ivan Neville (keyboards).

Note: The tempo of the song is slower than usual, which is because of some transferring problems that appeared before I got my hands on this recording. Don't know too much about the source, though. Please read the copyright statement on the bottom of this page, too.*


Laraby's Gang - Chris Barron with John Popper 2002
December 2002 live at the Here Arts Center, New York City, NY

A beautiful Chris solo rendition of the Spin Doctors' song "Laraby's Gang", performed in December 2002 at the Here Arts Center in NYC. This was a show in honour of Tim Vega, artist and brother of pop-folk singer songwriter Suzanne Vega, who passed away in April 2002. John Popper joined Chris during his solo set - later that night, Chris joined John and performed some cool Blues Traveler tunes with him.


So Bad - Spin Doctors 1992
May 22, 1992 live at Lawrenceville High School Prom, Lawrenceville, NJ

"So Bad" is one of the most fascinating Spin Doctors blues songs. There are not many recordings of that song available. Without any doubt, this one here (taken from the old "Unreleased Gems" compilation) is simply breathtaking and beautiful.


Fisherman's Delight - Spin Doctors 1991
April 24, 1999 live at WBOS Earth Day, Boston

This one's really rare - a live recording of "Fisherman's Delight" which was released as a great studio version on the "Here Comes The Bride" album in 1999. On April 24, 1999, the band presented some of their new stuff such as "Here Comes The Bride", a great rendition of "Wow" and this track. Featuring Carl Carter on bass, Ivan Neville on keys and vocals and Eran Tabib on guitar.


Gestalt's Blues- Spin Doctors 1989

One of the earliest Spins live shows circulating - "Gestalt's Blues" is a true Spin Doctors classic: another funky tune with some great guitar work by Eric Schenkman.
