I once asked Kevin Shapiro on Twitter about getting this Reba on a LiveBait and he said there's an issue with their recording of this show.

Unfortunately, the Reba -> Walk Away -> Simple would be ineligible for Live Bait since that series only features originals (or royalty-free songs like Auld Lang Syne). There’s an upcoming From the Archives series in less than 10 months, though. A few tweets to @shapsio couldn’t hurt.

Ah, I never noticed that before!

What I remember about hearing this Reba live was just marveling at how effortlessly and beautifully the band navigated the composed section. They just blew me away with their patience and precision. At some point, I listened to all of the late ‘90s in order, as you do, and I determined that this Reba jam is when Trey first unleashed his backwards delay effect (at 18:13), the Hendrix-y, melty sound that would dominate the jams of ‘99. I love that sound. I’m sure Trey used it before then, but this is the first appearance in a long while, I believe.
