    Rik formosa laid the guitar down live while hungover. Legend. Such a great song. Glenn Shorrock on point vocally. Tight rythym section. Awesome band.

    Someone on the internet always has to say something is "underrated" ....the only reason this song was not worn out like so many "classics" is due to its length. There are edited versions but everything is too good to cut. The real enjoyment is listening to all of the full version.

    Such an underrated gem from 1975. The lead guitar is badass.

    The relevancy of this song does not change😎. I got this song on a cassette tape(LRB Greatest HIts-bootleg) about 1980, from old Vet/Biker . He is long gone now. But this song is still around,😎. Gorgeous song.
