  • @jonno52 thanks a million!!!! I have been trying to figure that out for over 35 years!!!!! Strangely that song was our warmup song when I played junior hockey in the 70's. Can't imagine anything like that now!!

  • @banzaizipper "Wheels", if we're taking about the same riff - see my other comment. (That's 3 posts by me - outta here now!).

  • @jonno52 Ah, knew I recognised that second bit, from 1.53: "Wheels" by the String Alongs from 1961 (it's here on YT). Who would have thought of putting *that* together with "Mystery Train?!" Sweet touch.

  • That segue at around 1.53 is exquisite. Great playing by everyone: thank you otterfreak.

  • what song is that instrumental riff Mark Stewart is playing from?
