The Basement Tapes version of Spanish Is The Living Tongue pretty much sucks. There is no YouTube video because Sony is vigilant about removing tracks from the Bootleg Series.
I'd have to go back and look but I thought there was a beautiful and clean version on the Bootleg #10 from Self Portrait.
There are two different piano-only versions from 1970 that are in circulation - one from Another Self Portrait, and the other from the 1971 Watching The River Flow 7”.
Another Self Portrait

https://youtu.be/jVtn4bTh54cSo he recorded it in 1967 (Basement Tapes), 1969 (Nashville Skyline sessions), 1970 (on 3-4 different dates), and 1974 (NY BOTT sessions). The Planet Waves logs are incomplete, so I wouldn’t be shocked if he pulled it out in 1973 as well.
But the BOTT one is far and away my favorite.
Had a few drinks last night and put this on. It really is a nice version on the new disc. Different but great.
