Damn this sucks shit. You could have spent your potential wisely and made your sorry parents proud. But instead you chose to waste everything. You’re about 50 years old and and argue with people in the comment section of a Black Hawk Down video. Go get a job. I’m seriously disappointed in you.

Yes you are correct, this is the Jam Lab & Gordon remix fro the A-side of the 7". If you want two 'unknown' mix, you gotta get hold on the white label 12". It has only two songs (instead of three) on each side. A2 and B2 is different mix than official releases. B2 is btw. an instrumental mix.

Definitely the best I have heard on You-Tube. Of course, my high-school's was the best back in 1974 LOL unfortunately I have no recording to prove it. What I will honestly say though is that this lacked the genuine rock feel that we had back then....but maybe that is to be expected 42 years later!
@thecrew7776 жыл бұрын
Yeah, we rocked this one hard in 1977. So much so that (as a 75 person choir) we were invited to tour Europe! "Rock" is NOW sometimes considered somewhat mellow, because there is an edge lacking. Maybe it was just scratchy vinyl? LOL!
@allhimwithme51153 жыл бұрын
This is the best you've heard on KZbin because it was the official album; I know because I was 5 when my mom wore a deeper groove in the vinyl playing it, LOL. I'm 48 now...just found this, and when it started playing I burst into tears. That feels like a few lifetimes ago.
