Saw her at Old Man Rivers in Avondale, LA in 1979. 

Great opening band, and then she came out and sang lead. Awesome set.

Old Man Rivers was 'da place in those days. They were booking acts that 6 months later were national names. John Prine, The Police, Red Rockers, etc, etc,

You know, RLJ doen'st normally "do" it for me. 
Just a mis-match in styles-much the same way that I respect both her and Dylan, but don't really 'get' them. 
This, on the other hand, just hooks me. Don't know why, just a solid, happy roll with it thing.

Hmmmm ... I always thought this was the original and Lowell's was the cover. In any case, I never cared for this song at all until I heard Lowell do it. This version here I could do without. Edit: Okay, I checked and the Lowell George version of this song, written by Jones, is the original (1978). The Jones "cover" of her own tune appeared in 1979. 1978 ... 1979 ... it's hard to keep it all straight nowadays.
