    Craig Frost is the addition to the band and is also very talented. He went on to play with Bob Seiger for many years...GFR is THE most underrated band in history. They were the best band in the world from '69 to '75...selling out all over the world.

    Mark would play keyboards earlier on for several years before they added Craig Frost. I guess they were looking to expand their sound without giving up Marks rhythm and lead guitar sound. Either way GFR always rocked especially their earlier stuff.

    I don't remember hearing this song before, great song like all of their songs. Yep Don has a great voice also, makes me wonder how many arguments there were on who got to be lead singer on a song. Just like the female backup singers organ player an addon for certain songs. Many 3 piece bands will add an extra guitar player or other instrument for a song. Triumph another great 3 man band would add a guitar player sometimes. Checkout Triumph Lay it on the line.
