John Stewart is a vastly underrated song writer. This song evokes great memories of the summer of '79. My summer job was in a steel mill and after I'd get off at midnight I'd drive home with my windows down (no A/C) and this song would invariably be playing. 32 years ago. Makes me feel ancient.
Dig up some of his other music, you'll be impressed.

Stevie Nicks was doing songs with everybody back then, what a great voice!



Some explain to me why I only heard this song a few times in the late 70's and early 80's but never again? How come such great songs never get played?
