I couldn't agree more. When I was speaking to Roberta, his ex-wife but still manager, she talked about how Ronnie had dreamed of getting to record on Milestone. I loved all of his Steeplechase albums (some more than others), but there was a period where he was on labels that didn't do him justice, during which I enjoyed his sideman appearances more. Xanadu was gone, and Milestone was one of the classic American labels with a storied tradition still in operation. Is "Scene" slick? Unquestionably, but Ronnie still plays wonderfully, and I have always been a fan of Keezer. Needless to say he has matured in both musicianship and personality, but he's unquestionably a magnificent pianist. Ronnie's Airplay was my introduction to Keezer, and I was blown away. Ronnie played with a lot of pianists, but I particularly liked those albums with Keezer, Kenny Drew Jr., and George Colligan. -

I have a preference for the alternate take, myself. Most blues rock musicians inspired by Johnson who emerged in the 1960s never heard the originally released version. Did they need to? The first time I heard it was on the Roots Delta Blues compilation that you mention above. -

Several years (about twenty) ago there was a thread about the reissue series from Universal France regarding their magnificent Jazz In Paris releases. Volkher Hofmann documented the release on a web site he created that no longer is active. Discogs has documentation that I have supplemented below at my research site: https://jazzresearch.com/jazz-in-paris/ Jim
