Originally from his 1977 second album 'Show Me To The Stage' always thought this should have followed 'Shannon' from his first album to the top. On the 'One More Tomorrow' greatest hits package here from 1996 which includes Shannon. Takes about a minute to get going then the wonderful Beach Boys style singing comes sailing in just like half a dozen photos this time round.. + Informações
