I used to have this single on vinyl years ago but I've lost it - the B-side was called 'Scion', which was an awesome song in its own right. Anyone remember it, and could they post it? Thanks.

I agree that this is a better version that CSNY or Joni Mitchell. But I thought there was another version around the same beat as this that was fairly popular in the US. In any case, I never made it there even though I was around the right age. To think that all the people there are now at least in their 50s. What happened to all the idealism from then? Where did it go?Thanks for posting

It's a brave man who cleans them toilets. A definite world's worst job contender.
