As a south african, I would like to say this song made us go through the difficult times of segregation in our country. I learned to understand that we were similar about how our brothers and sisters went through like us around the world although we were some thousands kilometres apart. Everytime when I listen to this song, it makes me cry.

Absolutely Molefe! It's still an "anthem" for me. I've been playing it quite a bit lately, as I ponder on the pain our fallen heroes must feel when they look, from their gravesides, at the happenings in our country of late. We'll overcome this too.

This song makes me think about the stories my grandmother used to tell us about Uncle Wilton, Joe, Styx, and Wayne using the car to appear in dive clubs because that was the only place they would perform, and the food they cooked to make sure they weren't hungry because they couldn't eat anywhere either. GOD's peace Joe!

Summer of 1982, Montreaux Jazz Festival. I was with fellow high school musicians, had never heard of the Crusaders. Our band director made it compulsory for us to attend their concert. Before the concert began, we all mocked these “old dudes”, thinking their playing was going to bore us out of our skulls. Wrong! About three bars into the first tune we were all hooked. Amazing, brilliant musicians! We all came back to the States and bought up all the Crusaders records (yes, records) we could find. Gratitude to Wilton Felder, Sticks Hooper & Joe Sample (and the rest).
