What songs did Stevie Provide her Best Vocals On?

Here are a few that come to mind...

Whenever I Call You "Friend"
Sleeping Angel
Dreams


What else?

I haven't thought of my choices quite yet, but yours are quite interesting. I may share 1 out of the 3 with you, and I probably wouldn't have given the other two consideration, but they're both quite valid. Fun stuff.

Hands down Midnight Wind! One of the greatest harmony vocals ever.
Seven Wonders, Talk to Me, Mirror Mirror

Beautiful Child
Midnight Wind
Dreams
Sleeping Angel
Gypsy

Would probably be my top 5. No particular order, other than Beautiful Child - which is by far the best vocal of her career.

Whenever I Call You Friend is the first one that comes to mind, I really wish she had recorded some material with THAT voice.

Beauty and the Beast
Beautiful Child
Crystal

My favorite vocal of hers will probably always be the background wails she does on Walter Egan's Tunnel Of Love. They're just so witchy & primal! It's still hard to believe she was convinced to participate in such a raunchy song. :laugh: I actually think some of the best vocals Stevie has contributed are backing vocals- case & point, the sultry vocal she contributed to Marilyn Martin's Sorcerer. Like others have mentioned, her backing vocals on Jon Stewart's Midnight Wind are amongst her most epic studio vocals. The emotion captured on Storms is unmatched- it sounds like she recorded the song right after a big cry. I think the most beautiful vocal she ever recorded was Beautiful Child. So I have many favorites for different reasons. :D

Live vocals are another animal altogether... that's probably best discussed in a separate thread. :)

For me, her best vocals are on:

Dreams
Silver Springs
Sleeping Angel
Whenever Call You Friend


Later days:
Street Angel
Call On Me For Magic
You May Be The One
Moonlight

Best Vocals, this is a tough one.

Solo
Italian Summer, the last note resonates with me.
Beauty and Beast
Belladonna

Mac
Everybody Finds Out
Rhiannon (1980 Live)
Sara

Hands down Whenever I Call You "Friend" is her best vocal ever. I also wish she recorded material with THAT voice.

Other standouts:

Seven Wonders
Stand Back
Rhiannon
Long Way To Go
Gypsy
Moonlight
The Dealer
No Questions Asked

I love her voice on just about every song. I love her voice then and now. That's why I first became a fan. The other fascinating things about her, lyrics, image ect came later. There are only a few songs when her voice seemed off

Great topic.....

I would say (in no particular order):

Silver Springs
Whenever I Call You Friend
Sara
Gypsy
Storms
Wild Heart
Beauty and the Beast
Belladonna
Highway Man
One More Big Time Rock and Roll Star
I Sing for the Things
Juliet
For What It's Worth
Secret Love
Moonlight
Love Changes

Call on me for Magic

so many…off the top of my head I vote:

best technical vocals
white album Rhiannon
Dreams
Rumours version Silver Springs
Forest of the Black Roses
Birds of Rhiannon (there's a common era here)

Best emotional, raspy Stevie vocals
she loves him still take 1
Joan of Arc take 9
Violet and Blue
Marilyn Martin version of Sorcerer esp her "Lady from the moooooountaaaaain" in the middle

"At Last" is definitely on my list!

Yes, indeed.
