Yeah. And? Is this an observation, or a reproach? Either way, somehow, "I love elite people" or "I shoot everyday people" doesn't quite have the same appeal.

Amazingly, the bass player seems to just be playing one note throughout the entire song.  And yet . . .

How does he do that??

I went to go see them back in '68 in Chicago at the Grant Park band shell along with Muddy Waters  but after Muddy Waters played they never showed up and a riot ensued. Muddy Waters was good anyways...

Propably. To me, this is one of the bands I hear critics raving about, so I put it on my "to discover" list only to find out I don't get what they're getting. Different folks for different strokes. Enjoy.
