    Literally tunes out the world and numbs all pain. Side effects are nostalgia, and passionate rage to play air guitar.

      The station I was listening to when this came out didn't play it, so I only heard it on American Top 40, which of course played the abbreviated version. It always seemed to me that the song never really got started. Years later, I have SiriusXM and finally heard the full version (on either Classic Rewind or Classic Vinyl) and finally it made sense. Never understood the radio edit, the full song isn't that long, and 4 minute-ish songs were being played all the time by then.

    Back in the early 80's when I was in high school a local guy several years older than me and my running buddies had a black 1965 Mustang coupe with Old Black Betty painted across the edge of the deck lid where the lock and Mustang letters were. The car had a built 289 with a dual quad set-up best I can remember,4-speed and I think it had 3.90 or 4.11 gears under it. He had aluminum slotted E-T wheels with skinny black walls on front and Mickey Thompson N-50's on the rear. Stan was a pretty cool guy. He'd give us a cold beer or two if we helped him clean and polish the car for weekend cruising. He died several years ago in his mid-50 of a heart attack. It shocked us all. He didn't look like he had a health problem in the world. His son (and only child) has Black Betty now. He brings it out a few times a year to shows and what not but he's adamant it'll never be for sale. R.I.P Stan.

Where the wild, Speedy bass part goes. Does any one knows why? DId they hired a different bassist to tape the song that's on the actual récord? the band's bass player can't play it ay all?

    Ram Jam fulfilled a dream of mine. I always hoped that one day a band like this would just show up unannounced someplace I was and play.
    It was the spring of 1980 at the university of Marathon county in Wausau Wisconsin (a small two year extension college of around 900 students.
    The local band that was playing and announced they were going to have some friends of theirs fill in while they took a long break. Then Ram Jam took the stage. They said they were traveling through town and just had a hankering to play. They played for an hour or so. It was just so awesome.
