as does let it rock! listen to eric

like it now from a musical point of view here goes:

keyboard intro/solo - not something you EVER get from BJ
heavy drumming, guitar riffs, "band riffs"
one of the best guitar solos in any BJ song

live:

works the crowd up

is sing a long like for chorus but ONLY chorus and no more than bad name, prayer (in fact less)... so you;d actually get to hear Jon sing it instead of the fat lager-drinking guy next to you... or the screaming barbie doll next to you
Im sorry im still not convinced. The rest of the song doesnt match the intro and "whoooaahhh" bits at the beginning. Not there worst, but IMHO not there best either

(i've been doing my essay and have nearly finished)

i stand by it - i've far from seen all i want to see of the 80s BJ but i just wish some people could see the live versions of let it rock they used to do (or homebound train) before they comment on them...

at least if i comment on bounce you know i've heard it and seen it

Let it rock is absolutely great! i agree with eric and Letitrock.

Where's your live version from,eric? I've got one from Cincinatti 87, something about 10 min long.
