Agreed that the 1990 Rhiannon far exceeds 1987. But in 1990 was also when the arrangement changed to remove the guitar solo if i'm not mistaken. Stevie could still nail some of the ending at least but the solo being removed and the jam before "Dreams unwind..." going away made the song much less impactful.
