Naïve Old Fart 9,548 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Nice selection, Sharkey. SAN JACINTO is hardly ever mentioned by anyone, at all. I saw PG, and band, play that on tour, in 1983 - the last time Larry Fast played live (gedit? ) with him. Along with SAT IN YOUR LAP (hell, and thr rest of THE DREAMING!!), EXPERIMENT IV is another overlooked masterpiece! Sharkissimo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, ha....me too! For us non-native-English-speaking people, in particular, a lot of the English lyrics we heard in our youth were rather warped.

Melange 446 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I'll never tire of this classic power anthem. Loved it since aged 10 or so, when it was the music which first grabbed me, then the lyrics later.. Instant testosterone flood from 2:50-3:06, guaranteed.
