Watch his left hand at about 1:40.

The B side clinched it for me. We used to (about ten years after this came out) take our jam tapes and listen to a few of the songs backwards. It was a weird thing- the other musicians said I sounded closer to foward when played backward then anyone they'd heard. I think that was a compliment...

A bit of old Trower. I called him the Sleepy Jimi.
I saw Trower at a small side stage (about 500 of us) at Summerfest in Milwaukee. Roy Buchanan played first. This was about 1985, a couple years before he hung himself in a local jail.
If folks don't think the music business is tough, take a look at how the Singing Nun died.

You made me curious. For those too lazy to look it up, from Wiki:Quote:

went to number one in the U.S. in 1963 and sold over 1.5 million
copies, winning a Grammy. She and a friend, Annie Pescher, later
founded a center for autistic children in Belgium. In the 1980s, the
Belgian government claimed that she owed back taxes of more than
$47,000 from her time as a recording artist; she claimed that the
money was given to the convent and therefore exempt from taxes. This
demand put the children's center in financial jeopardy, and in 1985
both she and Pescher took their lives with a combination of pills and
alcohol. At the time of her death, The Singing Nun was 52 years old.
We don't know that. That's like saying all priests are pedophiles. It's none of our business anyways.Quote:

Moral to the story: save your reciepts!

Man, that one brings back some memories. I saw them in 1972 as a warmup band for these guys.

I always though Greg Lake was an underrated bassist. Though now I see I was playing that first part too hard, I was basically playing Keith's left hand part.
Plenty of tears from some bombs painted "Gaddafi Green."

Greg Lake looks like Bill Clinton! LOLQuote:
