'Freedom' is the song that jumpstarted his career, more or less. That's the one he played at Woodstock.

He's got a new album out called "By the Grace of the Sun". The title track is pretty impressive.

Also, he plays All Along the Watchtower (Another one to download), and he told a story about how he asked a friend (Bob Dylan, although he never named names) to teach him the song. Then another friend (Hendrix) came and asked to learn the song as well. Hendrix recorded it a month later. cry:
