Loudest band in world at one time
Another totally awesome tune
I agree with Jose....Ian Paice, what an under rated drummer.

To Leigh-Alliso n :
The "Rolling truck stones thing" refers to the mobile recording studio they borrowed from the Rolling Stones to "make records with a mobile" when they went to Montreux. The song is based on a real incident in 1971 when the concert hall & casino there were burned down by "some stupid with a flare gun" during a Frank Zappa concert. Frank and his band lost all their equipment.
saw them at texas jam bon jovie was a warm up cool time
one of the coolest songs ever written
Saw 'em in San Antonio. No better band anywhere, and Made in Japan is much better than Made in Europe. I've had it since it came out. By the way, anybody here heard "Wring that Neck"??

The Bonnie Parker Band covering this song at the Silver Dollar Saloon on Long Island in Spring, 1973, my high school senior year, getting loaded on 50cent mugs of Silver Dollar punch (drinking age 18!), dancing till we dropped..... . a h h h , memories
songs perfect, intro perfect, lyrics perfectly confusing, you feel me
this song would be nothing without the tsktuhkatisk drumming in the background. im telling you, youre gonna want that tsktuhkatisk . I NEED MORE TSKTUHKATISK !
No, it's not a screw up. You heard correctly, but those are the original lyrics. A little quirky, but Ian's always been a little quirky with his lyrics.
leighfogarty
I thought i heard him sing "with the Rolling truck Stones parked just outside" would that be labeled a screw up?
'screw up' - you're kidding right ?
day_viewing
Didn't he screw up the intro?
Are we sure this is the live version? This is too cool. Great song.
I like it alot
jeremee.born s t e i n
This song almost defines rocknroll
numbscience
In agreement to jon bell and lmliro, one of the best live performances I've ever heard andeasily better than the studio version. The only other songs I've heard that are this much better live are Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap on AC/DC Live and Crossroads covered by lynyrd skynyrd on Another One From the Road.
Great song
lmliro
Agreed (about the live version). DP at their prime always did live songs that were edgier and grittier than the studio versions.
leapaa
arguably the greatest single live version of a song in the history of rock. i hate the studio version.
essseejay
right. a very "dirty" guitar solo. ;)
