I've really come to appreciate Live at the Regal, which is totally worth a listen. Though he gets referred to a lot simply as a guitarist, I'm really blown away by his vocal performance. Either you can connect with the audience or you can't, and you can hear a master at work on that record. It's funny to think how different things are now versus a time when girls would shriek for a bluesman as they did for a pop band, but at points the crowd sounds like they're at a Beatles concert!
