I used to play Chain a LOT when I was younger. Great memories. Great musicianship. Great songs!

[youandyamum]

[JENAD1]

[woofmanning123]

[Analprostate]

i played the toojay bushfire benifit with matt, was a very cool show for a good cause.

[eglider656091]

One of the great Aussie tunes, it was an anthem in the early 70's.

Off to see Matt Taylors Chain featuring Chris Finnen this friday 21/5/10 at Sandy Creek Hotel.For just $15.00.Will be a great night.

[landydave1000]

Just Think this song was Mushroom records first #1 hit!!!! And yet they plugged Kylie at the reunion concert. Go Matt stick it right up em

[rumturd]

I have seen chain in many forms a lot of times.Still one of my favourite live blues bands.

[333baxter333]

Classic!

[onyachamp]

wow have heard chain before but never really listened.geez i'm an ignorant bastard.will be sure to not let it happen again

[illeststylerz]

awsome!

[roadappleband]

Great Aussie Blues

[greeneyesmexico]

What a cool song. I always listened to the Manfred Mann's Earthband version/cover they did on the Messin' album. MME always improve the original ( like they did with Bob Dylan and Bruce Sptringsteen songs) but THIS original is awesome. I am impressed!

Congrats to the cool people Down Under. very talented indeed.

[wilks6]

G'day, greeneyes.

You should check out some more Chain and other great Aussie blues/rock acts, like Rose Tattoo, Chris Wilson, Spectrum etc.

You'll love 'em.

[planetBgirl]

[realbudgiesmuggler]

[lesleyblood1]

[fatlady1ac]

Good Classic Blues

[smithya11590]

[themanohyeahohyeah]

I'd never even heard this song till I watched Spiks and Specks just before.  Awesome

[notsoninjakid]

how good was the version with the lollipop and flute!! XD

[bigbadreddog]

man I got to meet Taylor one night in Sydney while I was on stage blasting on my harp. He wandered up to me and the next thing I knew I was jamming with fucking Mick Taylor...1988, Landsdown Hotel

[rossraff1968]

"Fuckn classic shit"

[Badge290]

I was 14 in Croydon High School in Victoria when this was huge. I dedicated the song (over our lunch time school DJ system) to my girl George (AKA Georgina), but everyone thought it was some gay leap of faith. Anyway, gays are cools also. Old memories. Peace Out.

[vk6xre]

I saw chain in the basement of a department store in Perth, Bairds I think, in the Jeans Dugeon some 37, 38, 39 years ago, long long time ago. It was the first live band I ever saw. I was around 13 years old. The clank sound was made by hitting a poe (potty, jerry or whatever you knowit by, a guzunda). This track was the first 45 rpm single I bought, the second was turn up your radio by the masters apprentices. Oh the momories. Thanks Aussie Oldies.

[TarraRose]

I first saw them at Victorian Railways Institute Hall, Geelong. I was 15. A strong memory.

[y0utubemetube]

when i first heard this song 15 years ago, I thought it was from some old black blues guy from america.Than find out it;s from a white australian guy-Matt Taylor.What a great song.One of he greatest songs from an australian artist-ever...

[gt35176]

Playing on the 3rd of may in Cairns ++

[BoldBenHall]

Thanks AussieOldies - I have been waiting for this for ages! My best mate's sister's husband used to be in Chain at some stage (for real!!!) - not sure if it was when they made this song or later - but love it!!!! Thanks!

[swanstoon]

Who is your mate's sister's husband?

[originaldivinylsfan]

The sloppiest intro... but it just WORKS. Legendary Aussie band, brimming with talent. Cheers for this!

[sprocketrocket07]

Classic Aussie 70s blues. Would have liked to have had a video with this though. Snatch It Back And Hold It was my favourite. Cheers.

[AussieOldies]

For me ,the greatest Aussie Blues track .

[lesleyblood1]

@AussieOldies sadly under rated, ... and still not even half promoted on internet……bad management?

easy to fix that…..get another 6-7 millions views etc.

also the tags are terrible,….Chain Management get your shit together, like to know how?

just ask!

music is too good to just sit in related searches.
