@curiousjim  Yes-- Strozier is the sax player.  So many excellent recordings to explore by W. Shaw if you've not yet done so.

Best Covers
Dwight Yokum kickin’ big Country ass . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sma7807ndP4 Imagine him doing an entire record of Dead covers!   Emmylou’s done a bunch, including this, one of my favorites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1k53OZZi... 
Hegel comparison
Audio Excellence Canada did a youtube video comparing the H390 and H590. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIsZOwpWMMA Hope you find this helpful!          
Cream — Stormy Monday

I would not describe Hegel as warm. My H390 is reputed to be the "warmest" in their line but this is only comparatively speaking. It's a very neutral presentation to my ears. I fear the op will be disappointed if he's depending upon a Hegel (espec... 
Cream — Stormy Monday
@tablejockey  I don't see what you're objecting you re: my comment about playing the tune as a I/IV/V, given that it was just an opinion. I never claimed it was gospel truth! In matters of esthetics, there will always be differing opinions. How t... 
Cream — Stormy Monday
I have a guitar playing buddy who prefers "You don’t Love Me" played straight, like on J. Mayall’s "A Hard Road" while I much prefer it swung like the Allmans did it. The nature of the Blues allows for many different interpretations of what might ...

Cream — Stormy Monday
@tablejockey I didn’t hear T Bone’s version until many years after I heard the Live at Fillmore East version and I still tend to view the B. Bland/Allmans arrangement as my baseline for comparisons. Played as a generic I/IV/V, the tune always so...
