Like the American Breed version and this version but I prefer Amen Corner's version the best...!!

A great song and, for me, a great unknown band!!! Maybe it´s because I´m from the northern part of Europe and at that period (60s) we were overwhelmed by rock music from England. My hobby is to discover and listen to great unknown band from all over the world. Check, for example up, THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and Beautiful Delilah". What a bloody "drive"!

Yeah, I do love that intro. I don't think the tempo they use here is the best though. Cool post thought
