That's my favorite on it, too. It's kind of interesting because it's a veiled (or not so veiled) reference to the old Sunset Marquis on Hollywood Boulevard, where Stevie's friend & Benmont & his friend used to rendezvous clandestinely. And sure enough Benmont's B3 palms really make the song. Stevie told those guys to make it "sound Petty."

That's why I love 'Imperial Hotel' too, I love the sound of a Hammond! Also, I love Bobbye Hall's percussion on this track.

I've talked to many who like the post-Dance (1997) Stevie and SYW (with FM) and TISL. I really believe it depends on when you got into her. I like older cars that seem to have character, rather than the cookie cutters they now make that all look the same.

I got into her when my brother took me to see the opening tour for Rumours at the Spectrum in Philly, so for me, the 1970s and early 80s Stevie (BD) were the best. I like the deep cuts of Stevie, not just SB, Edge of and Landslide. We're all different and thats what makes it nice.

I TOTALLY AGREE!
