One of the great rock anthems of the 70s. Love it!

The bass player, Jim Rodford, would go on to play with The Kinks on their mid-seventies - early-eighties albums before joining Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone in the reformed Zombies. He died tragically back in 2018 from a fall.

Saw Russ Ballard (the singer and principal songwriter) a couple of years ago. He was awesome. Russ also wrote 'Since you've been gone' and 'I surrender' which were two big cover hits for Rainbow

The KISS version is way better than this plodder, but I’m sure people realize that the 70’s version of this song was the original, and not the 90’s one lol

The epic solo payoff, the main theme, and the multipart vocals really seem like Queen just took this formula and turned it up to a million. Interesting!

This was the 1,000,000 song ever played on 102.7 WNEW FM in NYC. (1986).

Russ is so good on guitar that he can play it without touching it.

I just found this . I think I want to wake up to this positive message everyday

I think it was a Fender Stratocaster that was modded outside of the factory. Definitely not a production piece. Imagine the weight was less than five pounds and east on the back.
