@Empyriumman Aerosmith 'overrated'? Every musician in Aerosmith is better than their equivalent in KJ, particularly Steven Tyler who has maybe a full octave more range. As much as I like KJ, there's many reasons why they're leagues below Aerosmith...but you can start with talent.
@ZanaDude Steven Tyler? his voice is so annoying and his lyrics are so stupid, talk about talent, I can't think of a single Aerosmith song that I like, seriously, you may like them but to me they're just pop garbage, can't listen to them without falling asleep.
@ZanaDude Aerosmith has a few interesting but very fleeting moments in the early seventies, after this they were just the same old same old, corperate stadium rock shite.
Kj are much better musicians than Tyler & Co, Jaz Coleman of KJ is a composter and internationally accomplished composer, Kjs guitarist Geordie has a unique and much copied guitar style.
Hell yes, this is the best song off of Nighttime imho, and that's a pretty loft claim, considering how many absolutely killer tracks are on that album.
The gorgeous sound of a rare bass called a 'Wal'. I think they were custom made to order, had a waiting list for those who wanted one and weren't exactly bargain prices! Raven;s brilliantly rhythmic playing and creativity sure brought out the best of this instrument. He was a truly gifted and unique bassist. RIP Raven.
I could listen to this song a million times and never tire of it!

Great song, great band...but they are down the ladder from Aerosmith, as is this "Kings and Queens" compared to Aerosmith's.

@ZanaDude Aerosmith ? with all due respect they are quite possibly the most overrated band in history, they are so boring and so are their songs.

@ZanaDude they kinda lack attitude, meaning, relevancy, feeling and songwriting, though. and never forget creativity.

@ZanaDude Aerosmith better!? Yes, Love in an Elevator was an amazing song if you if you eat cheese for breakfast. Tyler is a annoying gimp!

It sounds a little bit like Prong's - Snap Your Fingers Snap Your Neck..., they were obviously influenced by Killing Joke

Geordie, Johnny Marr, Alex Lifeson, Holdsworth, Tuck Address...the best guitarists of all time.

Isn't Raven using a Status Graphite bass in this video and live performances around this time? I didn't know if Wal ever made any headless basses.
By the way, you're absolutely right about Wal basses, they are exquisite instruments.
