Awesome band, listen to the tone on that guitar, and Rod's voice before he went up his own arse!

Again, what an amazing voice! And when I hear this it gives me tha warm feeling I get when I hear any Beatles song. If they had written it we would all be saying how awesome it is. In my opinion, it is one of the best songs I have evr heard.

Met him once, and he was a cock. But, this clip is one of the best examples of his playing from the Corridors of Power days when he had a great band, Don Airey, Neil Murray and Ian Paice, oh, and the dodgy vocals of John Sloman in this clip. It was the first time I had seen a video where the director knew that his fans wanted to see the fretboard when he was playing. Stay with it, and you will see where Andy Mac got his facial expressions from!

Don't you fuckin know it!  There are influences of all the previous clips in this song. You might hate them ( and many muso's do apparently ) but in my opinion, they are so fresh and although not totally they are the most amazing band I have seEn in the last 5 years ( not including LZ!).

They epitomise everything I love about rock. Period. 

Thanks, blueeyes, you may be responsible for my rock evangelistic posts here on in!

Best rock funk song ever! RHCP can fuck off.

Inspirational. Proof that a memorable solo doesn't need shred.
