Nice. One of the first songs I learnt to play while jamming with some mates.Like this one.


I looked it up on YouTube - first time I have heard it and I agree it is a great song

Did I read right that the lead singer is the one and same Feargul Sharkey who had a couple of hit singles in the mid 80s (A Good Heart and You Little Thief)?


Sure is Hondo.
