Sleeping Angel has got to be one of her best vocals ever. And Lindsey had nothing to do with it. Jimmy I. probably didn't like it too much either since it was left off Bella Donna.
Somebody Stand By Me and Twister (with LB) are also great. Sara is stupendous, as is Sisters of the Moon. Thrown Down is noteworthy from her latest work, and so is Sorcerer from TISL. IMO, some of her worst vocals are the SA title track and Thousand Days.

I've always thought that the studio version of Silver Springs was her best, especially the layers of vocals at the end. Many times the best vocals of her early tracks are layered at the fade of the song. There are several different versions of SS but the original 45 version is the I like the best. Followed closely behind are Storms, Angel (alternate take), and the demo of The Chain.

Her witchy wailing on Walter Egan's 'Tunnel of Love'!
The suggestive lyrics are a hoot!  Anytime you want me to do a little chore Don't you know I'm waiting down at your back door Indicate the feeling that you think is fine And you know your wish would soon be mine Tunnel of love, tunnel of love Ooh, baby, take me for a ride Tunnel of love, tunnel of love Ooh, mama, take me inside Ooh, you're such a comfort, ooh, you're such a thrill Ooh, the way you hold me when you say you will I'm like a volcano ready to erupt Baby, when you treat me to your sweet, sweet stuff Tunnel of love, tunnel of love Ooh, baby, take me for a ride Tunnel of love, tunnel of love Ooh, mama, take me inside Dancing down the street to the tune in my head Thinking of the nights spent in your warm bed I'm anticipating, watching time go by It's so stimulating between your thighs…

Her early demos of “Leather & Lace” also jump to mind for me. So effortless and warm. https://youtu.be/t3WI7ZVQcd0 https://youtu.be/g9oTuzs1hMA

If I wanted to try to prove to a non-fan that Stevie at her prime was a terrific vocalist... I would start with:
Silver Springs, Beautiful Child, Edge of Seventeen, Sable on Blonde.

Silver Springs- Studio '77 bar none, her best
Whenever I Call you Friend- wonderful range and melody Dreams- Of Course Rhiannon Live in 75-76- best live vocals in the band's history Sleeping Angel- best since the 77 peak Gold Dust Woman tied with I Don't Want to Know Gypsy- Mirage '82 Call on me for Magic- TISL Demo- Wonderful vocal Gate and Garden- not the best song, but her singing is terrific Edge of Seventeen Sisters of the Moon- Mirage '82 concert- up there with the mid- 70's Rhiannons Sorcerer- Mid 70's Demo Midnight Wind- best harmony/back up vocal Tunnel of Love- as above a wonderful back up vocal Wild Heart- Wonderfully sung....

These are fantastic picks, I would also add Won’t You Say You Will and Finally Found a Girlfriend with Walter Egan.

Just went back and listened to Midnight Wind. It's really a shame there aren't more studio recordings of her singing in the late 70s, her voice was just so so superb.
