      Agree, great song with that hard-boiled, funky groove and Elmer's raspy vocals! Also, a very funny back story behind it (you know how these guys were hired by Mick Fleetwood to do a US tour posing as Fleetwood Mac, at a time when the real FM, pre-Stevie Nicks and pre their golden age of arena glory, were in a state of limbo but had contractual obligations to fulfil? Then Mick failed to show up at the first gigs and the band, these guys, felt he had given them away!) 😁

      The mind and work process all these producers have is just fascinating to me. They listen to so much music across genres and decades, and their mind is always "on" in that it suddenly latches onto a one-second moment somewhere in the song, they store it in "the library", and they come back to it, maybe the next day, maybe years later, to create something completely different from it. It's like the music version of every DIY person who has this tool shed full of random stuff that they might use at some point in the future, possibly, and they somehow always remember that they have it when they need it.
