Is this the most underestimated rock song ever? For me it is.

The Greatest prog. rock track ever. Always sends a shiver up my spine. Who remembers this played on the Brilliant station RNI back in the 70s. Great days. So much better than all the shite played on the 20 track repeat stations in the UK today. Must be the finest sax solo of all time on this original studio mix. Thanks for posting.... Long may YouTube live...

Graham Chapman's tremolo is absolutely scary. What wonderful music these guys made. It sounds as fresh and visceral today as it did 40+ years ago.

Funny how the guitar chords on the original single were edited out.

ONE OF THE FIRST RECORDS I BOUGHT WITH A PICTURE SLEEVE. GREAT.

My cousin Cindy was a friend of Lead vocalist Roger Chapman, and I met him a couple of times. Very distinctive voice, - and this, in my humble opinion, is one of the greatest songs ever written and recorded. Roger went on to form 'Streetwalker'

Banda Excelente!

I was an 18-y-o in 1972 and was walking around loving every moment of Tull, Alex Harvey - and Family. No wonder I'm on here every night re-living it all. Superb music.

I'm another lucky one that got to see them live in the 60's. In those days I saw so many bands and always under the influence of something that I probably only remember 10% of them. But this band was a standout, and I still listen to them to this day... and still have all their original vinyl releases.

I discovered Family at the start of 1969 in one of the free friday evening concerts given on Hampstead Heath, but the band was only one of about a dozen of those that were to become great household names in later years.
When the 'heath' finished it was back to Drury Lane and an 'allnighter' with much the same line-up. It was here in this venue that Chappo gave his best, and I, like so many others, followed this group everywhere to recreate the sensation! The band gave of itself. The fans also!

Saw family several times also...Happy Days !
