"Livestock" remains my favorite live album! If you don't know the story, Roy was offered the job with the Stones to replace the late Brian Jones. He flat turned them down!! "Livestock" also has the great vocals of Billy Price!

One of his "Standard" performances, as one of the greatest Blues Man ever blessing Humanity!
His cover of "Down By The River" is still one of my Fav's! R.I.P. ROY!!!!
For those critical of his vocals . . . blues tradition suggests that, if you stand up front with a guitar, you sing the damn blues. Many legendary acts - including Hendrix & SRV - were famously self-conscious about their voice, but sucked it up cause it was part of the gig. Kudos to all who had the balls to maintain the tradition instead of hiring a honey & lemon sipping, scarf-wearing, tambourine-slapping warbler who wouldn't know the difference between a Robert Johnson Tune and Auto Tune.

Genius. But what's with the audience? Are they stoned or just deeply depressed?
