Well? He has tons of solo material out there. What do you think is his best song?

Shine

All his stuff sounds the same, Poison's "Native Tongue" is all the Kotzen's solo songs you need.

I'll always answer this question with "Rust" and "High"

I'll go with "Love is Blind" or "Fooled Again"

I like a lot of his stuff. Some of my favorites are :

War Paint

The Damned

Venom

“Dream of New Day” and “She” are great tracks from Fever Dream 1990.

I love a lot of his stuff but, here are a few...

Good list.

anything off the ST and Fever Dream

Tell me that it’s easy
I’ll be around
Made for tonight
Never be the same
Fooled again
Till you put me down
Times gonna tell

I’ve wanted to like him but nothing I heard did it for me.

But “devil’s hand” is great and so is the video:

This one and My Angel were two of the first that got me going down the rabbit hole of all his stuff.

I always say about Kotzen - if you like motown and 70s soul, you'll probably like him. If you don't, you probably wont. His material is all over - everything from 2000s pop to fusion instrumental, but mostly lands somewhere between The Black Crowes, early Rod Stewart and Motown.

Everything Good - Old school RnB

Doing' What The Devil Says - has a Hendrix vibe. Great guitar.

Locked Out - Obscure cut... Moody, blusey rock.

Times Gonna Tell - Funky song. great chorus, nasty bass playing.

Special - another killer RnB song

That entire album was great. Til You Put Me Down is another strong one.

You’re either high, haven’t listened to many of his albums or both.
