    1978, a sleeping bag, my first love, a 1968 chevelle station wagon given to me by my father, a Pioneer supertuner 8 track player, a set of jensen 6 X9 triaxial speakers AND this song and I was launched into trying to figure out male/female relationships.

    Lost my virginity to this song but it always brings back wonderful memories..........and to Leon Russell I will always be greatfull.
