Awww man!
His overdriven pedal steel break in "Christine's Tune (Devil In Disguise)" is still one of my favorite arrangement twists in all of rock n' roll.

His steel guitar solo on Frank Zappa's 'It Might Just Be A One-Shot Deal' is my pretty much my favorite solo of all time. It's absolutely perfect.
