Best Rafferty song ever IMHO. Great tune, great lyrics, great production. Jim must have been gutted that it wasn't the big hit it deserved to be, maybe they should have added a big sax solo? ;-) Never heard it on British radio at the time, but fortunately for me it got airplay on Radio Luxembourg as it crept into the lower reaches of their Top 40 for 3 or 4 weeks which I always listened to, & I've loved it ever since. Was it a hit in Italy? They quite often seemed to pick up on good British records that weren't a hit here and I see there's a youtube clip of him performing/miming it on an Italian TV show.
Anne Perry Unfortunately not. If you're happy with the clarity, I could email you the original music file? Drop me an email at alanrafferty@btinternet.com
Alan Rafferty, how are you related to Jim and Gerry? You seem to have access to a lot of their music! I would love copies of some of your files. I am going to try sending an email to the address you posted. I hope you will reply! ❤️
Heard this a few times on the radio when I was a HS kid back in 1978...wonderful, simple song... Glad to have found it again

I just made a comment on “Bitter Harvest” about the Rafferty Brothers harmonizing. Now I hear what I was thinking! Angels for sure!
Excellent.
Sublime. 👌

Been trying to buy Jim Rafferty’s music on c.d. ?
Any way this song can be sent to Amazon or Itunes? It's an old favorite, and I only have my old vinyl!!!!!!
