Great intro. Up there with the best.

[fhc24]

It's easy to play, just look how he plays in this video.

It's easiest than I imagined.

[wideernie]

Which tuning is Rick using here? I know it's dropped 'D' 6th string but I'm sure the others aren't standard tuning just going by the fingering.

[memusic1947]

[illinformedgeek]

it's not so much the playing its self but the fact that he thought up those parts especially the intro , it was this that got me hooked on " THE QUO" when i was 14 ..... but then i grew up and moved on to springsteen, paul simon, dylan, waits etc ...but for good dumb ass, driving boogie you could do worst than classic quo
