I guess the most glaring ommission from Infidels was "Blind Willie McTell" which later turned up on the Bootleg Series. A strange ommission. Personallly I think it is the finest vocal performance of Bob's recorded works.

I read somewhere (maybe the Bootleg liner notes) that Bob was never quite happy with the way it turned out. The only thing that I can think about this is that he fumbles a bit on the piano near the end of the song, perhaps that's why he left it off.

I think Mark Knopfler's 12 String playing is beautiful on this track.

I like the finished version of Infidels, but it's not in my top five.
