I have a promo copy (for radio stations) of this LP with DJ notes: "Sounds almost exactly like Led Zeppelin." Have worn through the vinyl to the mat on every album by both artists, I have to say I don't strongly agree except it's heavy metal rock, which LedZep perfected. This song doesn't slow down at all as many Zep tunes do. No specific Zep song is being modeled, and that drumming (the only thing on the song not done by Dan Hartman) sounds not like Bonham at all IMHO. This is Dan at his best

[rickyon]

Although I agree with your premise that no specific Zep song is being modeled, There are many spots where there is a fleeting feel of Zep on this tune. In all of the instruments individually, the vocals and in certain combinations you find yourself thinking Led Zeppelin and then the moment has passed. It's definitely there or so many people wouldn't say so.

Contrary to the information Box ~ Not only did Dan Harman write this song, but he sang lead on it, played lead guitars on it, Bass guitars on it, And I think He EVEN did the drumming on it.

What is the source of your information?

[rickyon]

Chuck Ruff played the drums and Edgar Winter played the bass. The info box was a list from the album info on Wiki. My current info comes from the liner notes of the CD and Vinyl.

It was '74 or '75 - Edgar and Johnny Winter along with Dan Hartman doin' it live for almost 3 hours. Free Ride, Frankenstein, R&R Hootchie Koo and this one. Ticket $4, Thai Stick $10, Mesc $3, bus ticket $1 - the evening was priceless. I saw Uriah Heep and Santana the same month. All for less than the price of parking today !

Dan Hartman was unbelievable. playing the guitars on this track!

[dreembeeken1]

That's Dan Hartman all right! The first cut off my vinyl copy was "ROCK AND ROLL WOMAN! (key of D) I think Tommy Bollin was bowling back then? (RIP!)

THEN we went to disco for a while. 2 thumbs up!!

[fanofprotopic]

it blows my mind how versatile a musician Dan Hartman was. He could do heavy rock like this, classic disco like "Relight My Fire", country or pop, soul like the music he produced for James Brown and Little Richard, he could do it all. I miss him and his music a LOT.

[QuayLewd]

According to the liner notes in the cd and the vinyl, Dan Hartman wrote the song, sang the lead vocals, and played all the guitars. Edgar Winter played ARP ('70s synth) bass and Chuck Ruff played drums. Rick Derringer, while he did play on the album, did not play on this song.
