I would have loved to have seen him with Lou Ann Barton singing.
Saw him countless times. I used to manage a bar a few doors up from where Stevie had a regular gig, so on slow nights I'd walk up and catch a set. My hearing was already destroyed by that time, but I'd still stand behind the stage and (more importantly) behind the speaker banks. They were loud.
Im sure that I heard Lou Ann with him at that time, but my memories are somewhat hazy. My memory also has an unfortunate tendency to conflate Lou Ann the Barton with Lea Ann the Bizarro.
I also have a memory of Stevie playing with his brother in 1974 with Keith Ferguson in Storm, an event that has been proven to me to never have happened. I know I did see him a little later with the Cobras.
