And I think it’s 7/4! lol.

But any excuse to share the mighty Gang of Four. My other option was Mother by #ThePolice. (But it’s just not a fave)

Day 2 - A filler song

Frankenstein - #EdgarWinterGroup (1972)

This “throwaway” track became a huge hit (and #1 in 🇨🇦). This version, live on the UK’s #OldGreyWhistleTest, is the definitive version, imo.

It was a toss up between The French Inhaler and The Indifference of Heaven from the same live LP. So glad I got to see him live in 2002. 😢
