Bravo Roy Harper. Have a cigar. Your gonna go far.
Very, very cool! I hear teaser-jams of AC/DC, The Stranglers, and many more here... Hats off to Roy!

Though David Gilmour is credited for guitar work and Bill Bruford drums, I hear a lot of Who influence. 

New to me but I'm guessing that this was released between 72 & 74. 

I know, Google could (will) tell me but I don't want to spoil this journey.


I totally agree, I'm thinking mainly due to the vocals. New to me also, and it's hard to believe I have never heard this song before. It blew me away... just wow! I see it was released in '75, I was a freshman in h.s. by the end of the song I pumped it up to 9. Rock On!
