This song, in particular, was a showcase for Mick Taylor. How anyone can prefer a version without him is beyond me, but there you go.

A candidate for the most emotional satisfying version I have heard, I think, might be on the early boot LIVER THAN YOU'LL EVER BE. The emotional side of it gives the song an extra dimension to this listener.
Added: Even more ( to a larger degree) than other versions.
I still haven't heard a more emotional satisfying take on LIV than the original studio version. The dynamics on that one is seemingly very hard to re-create.
It might have to do with Keith's simple, but very emotional slide work, as well, imo.

How can it be more blues than what Keith does on the studio version? Musical explanations, please.

Because it's basically country? It's not blues at all without the Mick Taylor solo, and that why I prefer the 1978 versions: these are all countrified rock, to my taste much more interesting than the oblique Taylor super duper blues solo, which in the end aren't that difficult to play...
