Hehe, we all have our faves don't we. :wink: There is just something in his vocal tone/delivery that moves me..........especially on the more bluesy/R&B/soulful songs. And it's not very often you find not only a talent frontman, but an extremely talented bassist and guitarist all in one band. :) Love that song, it's off my favorite cd of theirs from the Paul Gilbert era, Hey Man, great tunes......Take Cover, Where Do I Fit In, The Chain Another one from it...... http://www.vimeo.com/3968913

Still miss the Kotzen era too though, personally I think the writing and vocals (Eric and Richie) were better. One of my faves from when Kotzen was the guitarist...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7rc_GcZ_BI

But nothing beats Gilbert's intro on this..........one of my all-time favorite guitar intros! http://www.vimeo.com/3903423

K, I'm rambling, sorry....... :oops: :lol:
