Hit the "skip button"! ...moron!
Hate to be all old and pedantic but "owns" just isn't a verb no matter how much you may like it to be.
Not to be pedantic either, but "owns" is a verb - a transitive verb which requires an object, but still a verb.
Was with Canned Heat at Woodstock in '69.
Showed up at the studio in '74 to be considered as Mick Taylor's replacement and ended up on 'Black and Blue' - That's him on 'Hot Stuff' and 'Memory Motel'.
So bizarre, all the complaints. I'm hearing this for the first time and thinking "Wonder if there'll ever be a day when Bill doesn't introduce me to something new and different?" and quite happy with the knowledge that that day is unlikely to ever happen. Keep on keeping it eclectic, Bill... some of us are quite grateful and satisfied with the results.
So grateful that I support RP on a monthly basis. Never want to see this station go off of the airwaves if I can help it. LLRP
The listeners who drag this down to a 6 are the same type of uptight assholes who laughed at us and called us loser, stoner loadies back when this was fresh.
Who's laughing now ! Betcher dead, or wish you were. I'm still Truckin'
Either that or they don't care for it?
This sounds great with headphones on.
Right on! Especially in FLAC w/ great studio phones, amp & DAC!
How could anyone not love this??
Maybe like the Grateful Dead in that many people need psychedelics to really "get it". Certainly my experience. Post punking my way through college, one of my mantra was "kill the Dead", a la many a punker. I went to a Dead concert, even, at the famous Frost Amphitheater at Stanford, and was so bored I literally napped on the lawn. Then after college I got solidly dosed, listened to the new year's '89 show live on the radio, and have been on the bus ever since, and increasing over time. So maybe some of that going on here. I gotta say I love the album cover. Reminds me of one of the alien races in "The Fifth Element".... perhaps this cover was an inspiration....
Slick!
I Agree!! GREAT TUNE!! (great version of this song). Thanx RP!

Great tune. Here's a totally different take by jazz great Ramsey Lewis:
