Can't believe I forgot about this one...


Love the choice of a live version. I'd hoped for similar earlier with this one...

... and here is another... another personal favorite, and have always loved this band:


Wow, this sounds much more like something from Jeff Lynne's cohort Roy Wood from The Move and then the first Electric Light Orchestra album.

Or Dave Edmunds...

Very Dave Edmunds/Rockpile. But since you're like the only other person here who's ever mentioned Roy Wood or The Move, here's a rarity of them goofing off while recording "Looking On":

And the pre-Lynne Move... "shook the crowd enough to sway the interest from the queen."

One of the great power chord openings from the 60s.

Dylan stole that line from Joseph Stalin
One persons gets killed and it’s murder
A million people get killed and it’s just a statistic
Uncle Joe was cold

Didn't really care for the fantastical lyrics, but always enjoyed the dual guitar leads from these guys.
