@mississippisheik1 Those were the good ol' days. First heard this tune in San Diego in 1973-74 (memory fade). May have been under the influence at the time (?). This is some of Steve Miller's best, as far as I'm concerned.

LOVE old SMB but diggin on his shift back to blues on "Bingo" I think Satch is on a couple.

@OneBigRetard Traffic, true. I hear a little Jimmy too during the rap.

Great tune.

This song was simply, ahead of it's time. Very uplifting and spiritual. The modulated Back-up vocals @ the middle eight, are recorded perfectly. So trippy, that I truly get lost in it. This is the stuff that won-over a generation of music lovers. It was Disco that kicked Steve in the teeth. And the result was Steve Miller "pop", instead of this. But he pulled it off. Jet Airliner soured over top of Disco, and landed @ Abracadabra.

Released in November 1969 not March 1970

great bass on this song, possibly underrated, as so many things are possible, ha ha

Thank you.
I posted that two years ago and am informed of this news every couple of months!!

@OneBigRetard It is the late great drummer Tim Davis singing, he was a founding member of SMB. He sang on many other early Steve Miller Band songs also.

What was amazing about this song, Space Cowboy and the rest, they all sounded really perfect for when we got stoned...especially this one. I was at a party in Pacific Beach in San Diego and flipped this platter on with everyone passing the doobies and they all commented how great it sounded...it was really awesome on a Pioneer Reel-to-Reel 4-Track run through Sansui Quadrosonic
