I love the intro on this song.... whenever I hear it on the radio (q107fm calgary), I think a great song is actually starting. And then it turns into this trash!
FIRST song that ever made me use my critical thinking skills -- wayyyy back in the day... from a 53 year old white woman born n raised in Calif. and am now stuck in a small "city" smack dab in the middle of HEL! -- Jackson, TN, married to a Black MAN who got screwed, BLUED and tattooed.
Enjoyed this one many times at the beach while on our 5th grade safety patrol patrol year-end party. I remember that I was wearing crushed dark purple velvet shorts with small black tassels. WHAT a decade ! We were too young to understand all the social implications; things were moving so fast that our little heads were spinning, and my conservative parents tried to shield us from much of it.
Actually, they were far from a one hit act, Les Emmerson had a bunch of chart successes, starting with the Staccatos, Five Man electrical band, and then some really good solo stuff. This tune was a big influence on a 6th grader in Alberta. Cheers
They opened for Traffic at the Aragon Ballroom in about 1971, and they got booed off the stage, I always liked the song....comeon now...Traffic was definately the Main Event....Ya gotta have shirt and tie to get a seat...you aint supposed to be here.. uhhhh...well, we were way beyong that in 1971....
@1337Ninja3000 Not true. They had another American Top 40 hit "Absolutely Right" that almost went Top 25 (#26 to be exact) in 1971. Rarely gets played anywhere unless you listen to Music Choice's classic rock channel. I'm sure they had huger success in their native Canada.
@7beers You make anyone look like Einstein compared to you with that illogical remark. You imply that a 1 hit wonder must be a great song; which is certainly not the case.
Why do I picture Lt. Dan whenever I hear this song?
