Thanks for the post Subtrerannia. This is as good as it gets in heavy blues rock. The vocal here by Gary Wright and Mike Harrison is awesome. Luther Grosvenor (aka Arial Bender) plays an over-the-top solo. Spooky Tooth is a great English band but Gary is from New Jersey and went to Tenafly HS. Belief or not, you would hear this song at a high school dances back in the day and I did! What do you think Simon Cowell would say about these guys if they showed up on X-Factor via a time machine.
If my memory serves me correctly, the drummer on this cut is B.J. Wilson and the keyboardist is Cris Stainton both of whom were original members of Joe Cocker's Grease Band
They didn't play this kind of music on fm radio enough in my day! Now I can play anything I want, anytime I want! Is this Heaven? Oh...it's youtube...lucky kids these days have it made...
its all relative from the 60 and 70's sound like the allmans and uriah and all good things allmost forgotten,man snap my fingers and I'm back in the Warehouse in New Oleans 1970 hair down my back tripping on some good LScrazy maybe some white lightnin or some microdot or
I don't know whether or not you'd be into it, but check out KMFDM. Or Portishead. Or Faithless.Those are not well known, but Portishead and Faithless are some
outrageous,when i heard it in 68/69 in brooklyn i thought it was out of this world/mynfave band/ cream /hendrix/spooky/i formed my group around it /chango/with b3/congas/guitar and shit/Pepechango

This sounds fantastic! I much prefer Yesturday's Children version of this song, but still i think Spooky Tooth did a great good with this number.

The real deal: Raw and heavy! Rock has gotten so far away from this, it's not even funny..................

Their high/low dueling vocals (Wright/Harrision) remind me of the Righteous Bros.

This is the type of song that is so good instead of looking forward to it ending you want it to go on for another 9 minutes.

An amazing song from an almost forgotten band. Classic rock radio stations need to wake up and get these guys some playing time!!!!

There's some stuff that is real good today, but it's not well known or that popular. Never played on the radio.

Hell yeah, you're right.
I don't know whether or not you'd be into it, but check out KMFDM. Or Portishead. Or Faithless.Those are not well known, but Portishead and Faithless are some
of my favourite bands.
