I totally agree! You can hear Rick's guitar everywhere on the album, but you hear his voice very little. He didn't really get his due on this album like he deserved as a vocalist. I'd say his "Love Is Dangerous" collaboration with Stevie is the best one but I'd say it's really more of a tie between that and "Stand On The Rock", his only real solo performance.
I've always thought that "Walk Another Mile" and "Desiree" and "Intuition" from his "King Of Hearts" CD would have been better additions to "BTM" and show more of Rick's vocal as well as guitar talent. But alas, that was not to be.
