Favorite SRV Album?

I am listening to Live at Carnegie Hall... I've always enjoyed the first half of the cd of just Stevie and Double Trouble but today I am appreciating more the big blues band sound of the second half. So....the subject of this thread... my feeling at the moment is

Blues At Sunrise

Soul to Soul my least.

Live from Montreaux (the story behind it is part of what makes this album so cool)

Blues at Sunrise

Bootleg Montreal Forum is his best live performance available and SRV is best live IMHO.

My favorite live tune is "Couldn't Stand the Weather", which is on the Montreal Forum show that I believe was aired on the King Biscuit Flower Hour.

"Couldn't Stand the Weather" is also my favorite studio disk.

"Soul To Soul" was my first SRV album. I'd never heard of him and bought it just to see if he was any good. Next was "Couldn't Stand The Weather". After those two, I decided anything he put out was going to be great.
