In fact, Stevie sounds really good at the US Festival except Rhiannon. My gosh what happened backstage to change her voice so much. The US Festival Rhiannon is so different vocally from the other songs. Her voice is raw and fried compared to all the other songs.
I love her US Festival footage. She is so cute with her coke fueled banter about giving out the Wild Heart album as Girl Scout Cookies and her windshield wipers wave during How Still My Love.

Stand Back and Stop Draggin' My Heart Around went onto the official dvd of the 1983 Us Festival and they got redubbed because of technical sounding problems during the show.
