Always been quite attached to this tune, as it elicits fond memories of summer vacations in hot & humid Southeastern Oklahoma, circa mid 1980's. During that time, the song received frequent airplay on Tulsa's very own K107, which also happened to employ my favorite D.J. of all time, the (now) late Jan Elizabeth Degan (best known as Jan Dean), God rest her soul. On this live version, the auxiliary percussion are beyond terrific at the onset, but what Sir Phil is able to accomplish using the masses as his echo chamber/personal choir, near the end is nothing short of extraordinary! Jouir!
