I think the Modern Music suite ranks up there with cuts like Stairway to Heaven, Bohemian Rhapsody, Sweet Jane, From R&R Animal-Lou Reed. Real long brilliant music that takes you on a journey. Have you noticed how many people copy the intro part where he goes through the radio dial with Be Bop playing all of the songs? I heard the same type of thing on a Panic at the Disco CD and I heard on another CD but I can't seem to remember which one, showing my age...
Thank you for posting this and I am looking forward to more of the same. MM from BBD was one of the most influential albums on my playing of all time. The man was truely way ahead of his time.

Bill must be one of the most underated guitarists of all time. A true genius, I just wish his peers would honour the guy

When I first heard this song on radio in 1977 or so it sent chills up my spine, it is awesome, the entire "Modern Music" is great
