    thanx AL to give me the memories of my childhood in italy when terrorism was called brigate rosse and the channels were 2 and in black and white!…the radio and your songs and a FIAT 500 !!!

    Not all Muslims are terrorists. The shooter at Fort Hood isn’t proof of this ignorance. Would you call all Americans terrorists because of the Uni-Bomber or the Oklahoma bomber were Americans? I should hope not. Bad apples come in all colors. Don’t let one bad apple spoil the whole apple cart.

    This is a great little song. Brings back a lot of memories for me too. Lets not ruin it with hate speech shall we?

    I remember when Al played at my restaurant in Maui in 1977. He played Hendrix’s All along the watchtower. I remember it like it was yesterday.

    This music was from …
    This music was from a long gone era where the revolutionary spirit was still very much alive and people could actually see beyond the next acquisition. Alas, too many people today could not appreciate this sort of spirit as they are too busy conforming and being “correct’…

    A great song by Al Stewart that is not played much anymore at all. I had forgotten all about this song until finding it unexpectedly on youtube. Thanks for posting.

  21. joevs21001 Says:

    Even looks like George Harrison a little if you REALLY look at Al Stewart. They almost look like brothers somewhat when they were younger. They would have make a great “duo” singing on a few songs together. Their voices would have matched up quite nicely.
