What magical times these were - we were kids hitchiking home from surfing at the beach one day and a man in a van stopped and said " Hey you guys , I'll give you a ride if you'll help me unload all this stuff " We jumped in and unloaded Canned Heat's equipment and watched the concert from backstage maybe at the Anaheim Convention Center ,can't remember but it was stunning and wild !
Absolutely classic song of the 60's. In fact, one of the best of the past 50-odd years. Remember it well when it first came out and just as brilliant today.
This is one of my top five blues numbers. It literally sends shivers up my spine, listening to the loneliness in Alan Wilson's voice,all the while tapping my foot.
