Surprised this isn't here. Tight, clean version with beautiful tones and harmonies. Serene version before that blazing Fantasy.

I really dig Hornsby era performances of this classic tune.

Fantastic "Peter" with a great outro where Jerry really lets 'er rip.

One of the best post-Brent versions of "Stella Blue." Soaring, transcendent outro solo. Power Jerry.

Jerry's piling on the soul and plays a very nice solo.

This has nothing on the "Samba in the Rain" from Cornell.

Never thought there would be a "Dark Star" not added yet.

Mark my words: this is the best post-1972 "OMNS." The riffs are on target, the vocals are great. Excellent version.

Yea, this one is outstanding. Great solo from Jerry, too.

All of Bobby's mid-1980s' blues songs started off slow and raunchy then got faster and more laid back and generic.
