Dixie Dregs (Mark O'Connor era) video: "Cruise Control"

I was lucky enough to see the Steve Morse Band in concert recently. Not just because the band is so great, but because they don't tour much now that Steve spends so much time touring with Deep Purple.

During the concert I was reminded again of how the DVD material thus far available for the Steve Morse Band doesn't do the group proper justice. And reminded of it again when I stumbled across a old video of the Dixie Dregs with Mark O'Connor on fiddle. This captures the group as it was (though I only saw this incarnation briefly when they opened for ZZ Top in Lakeland, FL). Enjoy.
