I've only just recently discovered this track (strangely) and wondered is there a recording of the Storytellers live verison that wikipedia mentions?

Or any good recordings of it?

Only official release of it live that I know of is from the Meat Loaf - Live album - https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/tn0/Live-...meat+loaf+live

Beyond that I don't think that there are any other official releases featuring it live. I could be wrong though.

I only heard Modern Girl on The Very Best of Meat Loaf album in 1999. That lead to me finding Bad Attitude and Blind Before You Stop :)

I have mixed feelings on this song. It's got a good hook but it's also fairly generic 80's pop-rock. There's nothing that makes me say "Oh yeah, that can only be a Meat Loaf song".

That said, does anyone know when it was last performed? Storytellers tour or has it popped up since? Quite weird if it hasn't considering it was a mid-sized hit particularly in the UK.
