Saw Ian Hunter at Shepherds Bush Empire in London in 1996 when they were promoting Artful Dodger CD (hard to obtain other than at concerts). This was by far the catchiest tune on the night, but the rest of the CD grew on me after a few plays.
Was never too sure about the Artful Dodger CD but when done live the true intrpretation of the tracks comes through 1000 times better, this is no exception

Ian Hunter wrote THE best rock 'n' roll book ever, called "Diary Of A Rock 'n' Roll Star".
If you've read it, then you know - if you haven't, then you need to !!
Cheers Ian!
