Brakes are good, tires fair.

Not only very funny , but also well written. What a great story song. June 1973. Man this was big on the radio where I lived. We all loved it.

cool live version - original single released in August 1968. Also topping the charts that summer: Sunshine of Your Love Born to Be Wild People Got to Be Free Stoned Soul Picnic Indian Lake Jumping Jack Flash Classical Gas Light My Fire (Jose Feliciano version) Hey Jude Hush - Deep Purple version

Heart is one of those bands that have very little offically released live material from their peak, 1977-78. Too bad.

We have been rocking this tune at my weekly jam lately. Kick ass old time tune.

We are 50 years or so from the middle of the Zep era. If I go back 50 years from 1973-75 we are at 1923-25. Recording technology was in it's infancy. Records were just hitting the market in a big way. People were buying 78 rpm singles of songs by Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven , Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, Al Jolson, Paul Whiteman, Ben Bernie, King Oliver, Sidney Bechet, Bix Beiderbecke, Fletcher Henderson. The first Duke Ellington single I can find listed was released in 1927.

Great find. A few notes. First, that outfit takes me back to 1975. Second, I looked up the episode. It aired Nov 1, 1975. It was filmed June 13, 1975, just 3 months after the release of the album.

The above posts about the old Jon Stewart show reminded me of this gem. My goodness. Thirty years ago.

Thanks to all who made this happen. At 10:22 before the guitar solo in Over the Hills the guitar drops out. Great 20 seconds of bass and drums follows. Edit - in the YouTube comments someone pointed out that from the film it appears Page broke a string and got another guitar. I had not noticed that on first viewing.

1970 was the year of Creedence for me. My older brother brought the albums home, and my mom liked some of the songs that were on the radio. Well I had my first pair of headphones and when I got this 8 track (yes 8 track !) it was too much. This was all before I discovered Zeppelin the next year.
