A fine song, to be sure -- on the cusp between their 60s-sounding stuff and the timeless music they'd make for the next few years -- but the vid is really the find, here. It looks like it could've been made yesterday, utterly lacking (to my eyes) the tropes of pop videos from the time. That crane shot at the start looks like it could've been done with a drone. Everybody looks so tired and prematurely aged, no doubt the effect of the hard living that was de rigueur for rock stars of the time. C in California
Always been a favorite of mine!
ReplyDeletegood find
