I’ve heard these songs on the radio for as long as I can remember. The album’s title track and “Ready for Love” are among my all-time favorite Classic Rock songs. In retrospect, experiencing the live performances of some legendary Classic Rock bands in my late-teens, along with working on construction sites with fellas 12-to-15 years older than me, helped me rediscover some really great music and riffs from days gone by, especially that of the muscle car-driven mid-‘70s.
