Every time one of his songs comes on the radio, I crank it up!

A few that hit me that way are Radar Love, Evenflow, The Zoo, and many others.
And, after playing in Rick bands for over 30 years, my definition of loud is probably different than most people's definition.
In the liner notes of Layla, the producer, Tom Dowd, simply wrote "Listen To It Loud".
