Favorite scream in rock?

Robert Palmer lets rip a tremendous, rolling scream near the end of "Sneakin' Sally." "The fact is ... rrrooOOAAAHHHHH .... JUST BEEN CAUGHT."

What's your favorite scream, shout, or yell? Other than Roger Daltrey's, of course.

He also has amazing vocal chops overall. He has a 5 octave range, great intonation, ability to sing quiet in a pure voice, power to spare. At about the 4:27 mark on the song, "Used", is one example. At about the 3:40 mark of the song, "Handful of Nothing. Another example is a live version of the song, "Hallelujah" at about the 7:40 mark.

He does not usually scream, but on their song, "Hocus Pocus", he screams at the end of some impressive yodeling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4ouPGGLI6Q On a side note, even though this song is pretty fun, it is kind of sad that this is what they are remembered for, since they have a catalog filled with great prog songs.
