    Damn... I remember me and my 2 older brothers cruising down the Auckland Motorway after going to a Toots and the Maytals concert. I was only 12 years old and this song came on the radio. With the bustle of the city and my brother thashing it down the Motorway with this on his Clarion stereo crystal clear with deep bass. I'll never forget. Memories like it was yesterday.. I'm 53 now

    In 1979 I was in the US ARMY in Erlangan Germany went to local record store & they gave me free tickets to IAN concert. Me & my friends & some German girls went & had one hell of a good time! Thanks for the memories!

    the late, the great, Drury. Where are the musicians of today? On a voice box? Playing Xbox? These guys learned their trade in the 60s with nothing to spend and little training.
