  • produced by Todd Rundgren... took the boys to the next road.... rock on..

  • @micktheMaag that's right ... and Frank Zappa took them on the next road after that with 'Good Singing, Good Playing' but it wasn't enough to save GFR from breaking up.

  • your records alittle off centered there dude, but awsome still

  • wow, I just took a good look at my clip - it looks like the tonearm is slightly moving side to side - I thought just the record label was off-centered - guess the entire 45 was misaligned during pressing.  Doesn't sound it though .. happy new year fellow funk fan!
