The Barbarians?
ReplyDeleteMoulty!
ReplyDeleteThe 5th drummer for Spinal Tap? Stumpy sump'n rather.
ReplyDeleteThe musicianship on this is fabulous and the whole instrumental end of the song rocks. I'm particularly drawn to the rhythm guitar - it's got a real Jerry McGeorge Gospel Zone vibe.
ReplyDeleteI agree whole heartedly, Jack.
ReplyDeleteJim Fairs was the song's writer. I got an autographed Sugar and Spice LP years ago and on it he spelled his name "Jymn." Pretty cool.
ReplyDeletePretty cool, indeed. I just love the musicianship throughout the song. But it is the music change-up at :41 that grabbed my attention when I first picked this up in about 1986.
ReplyDeleteJack, you are correct. This has a real Shadows of Knight feel to the end of the song. Both Chicago bands.
