This is an excellent song from the late 60's/early 70s that was in need of being picked. Blues Image was a band that had great potential but ended up being a flash in the pan so to speak. This was really their only hit, however many members of the band went on to join other acts of renown, such as: Alice Cooper, Three Dog Night, Steppenwolf, Iron Butterfly, and Crosby, Stills, and Nash to name a few. Here is a fan video with the studio version on YouTube. +
