Agreed... that's certainly a great one. Her backing vocals from the mid '80s to about '90 were just fantastic: so fat and juicy! Marilyn Martin's version of Sorcerer is another great example. Her backing vocals on Rick Vito's Intuition is another great one.

love the drama of her Beautiful Child vocal, the texture and layering are exquisite and affecting! close second for me is That's Alright. torn between Gold Dust Woman and Silver Springs on the Dance

Her voice on the first to Mac albums was technically the best she's ever been...her range has never been that good since. Dreams is the epitome of her voice during that golden era, then the White Album Rhiannon. Her warble on Whenever I Call You Friend ("forever and everrrr") was also from this time, never to be heard again... Beautiful Child on Tusk has some beautiful reminders of that voice.

Raspy Stevie, gotta go with Wild Heart (tho not one of my fave songs, save the backstage video version with Lori).

Not a fan of the Pro Tools tweaking or whatever the hell they've been doing with her voice lately. : (

My favorite Mac vocal by Stevie is Dreams, hands down. She's had many great vocals, but none of them compare to the simple perfection of Dreams.

As a runner up I'd say Sara, maybe, or maybe Gypsy.
