Default I love threads like these

By far my favorite JaS track from Boston is on vol. 3. Not too long ago, me and a friend of mine were searching tunes on Youtube, and we came across Gary Moore's version of JaS. As I had the Boston vol 3. version fresh in my head, Moore's version did not move me at all. My friend thought it was pretty good. Then I played him Boston's Vol. 3 version. He couldn't stop laughing for half an hour. This juxtaposes fans of Gary Moore who flood the Youtube comments page with lauded praise.


Of course the best all time solo has to go to "All Over Again", Stockholm 4/1/70. It's more condensed and streamlined vs. the Warehouse. It's also extremely dark, only a person in so much internal pain could play a guitar solo like that. I don't even think Jeff Beck's brilliance could approach it, it's untouchable.


Is "The Letter" the Joe Cocker/Box Tops song? (can't be) If it is, I'd love to hear it.
