Steve's playing on all those tracks is amazing but my favorite is his rhythm playing on Soul Man by Sam & Dave. "Play it Steve!" He certainly did. :)

I liked Steve's solo release, "With A Little Help From My Friends' a lot. If you scroll down this link you can hear the Colonel talking 'bout "Dock of the Bay"... :wink:

One of the more underrated guitar slingers. When you see his complete body of work, it all comes home. He is one of the best and he played them all on a tele!

He's a great player. Your poll needs another option for 'other' Those three are all great, but not my favorite from him.

Ditto on the above. I love all three of those songs, but I don't think they represent the best of his playing.
