You only listed one blues song. The only reason I Loved Another Woman was brought out was because John thought Black Magic Woman had become too associated with Santana, and ILAW was kind of similar. But Oh Well and Rattlesnake Shake are boogie-rock songs, not blues songs, and even Black Magic Woman wasn’t exactly a pure blues song.

Plus, from what others have said, it sounds like Neil's voice would be better served singing songs by Bob Welch or Lindsey.
He’s closest to Danny Kirwan by a mile. I don’t hear a shred of similarity to Bob. Stevie sounds more like Bob Welch.
