    I used to have a Quadraphonic tape player and that song coming out of 4 quad speakers used to get me in trouble with my wife as she couldn't get my daughter to go to sleep with that song filling the house with the drums. With Quad there were a few places where the drums would go around from speaker to speaker. I would sit in the middle of the family room surrounded by the speakers with a smile on my face from ear to ear. Has to be my all time favorite song. [:D][:D][:D]

    My band played that song in our high school talent show. I had to do the drum solo perfectly as everyone knew every beat. [:D]

    I used to have a plastic air line connected to the air line on my air ride seat that I used to blow out my truck.

    Just find an open area with a good cross wind, open both doors and five minutes with the air hose and all the dust n dirt is long gone.

    Most truck stops sell them in kit form.

    This truck sat for two weeks, when we got everything squared away yesterday all I had time to do was a quick check, toss in my gear and take off. Trust me, I'm a clean freak and when I get to Oregon I will be detailing this thing!

    Wrong end of the state. But Baker City is a great place. Be sure to holler when you get closer to Portland area.

    Safe Travels.

    That was the first rock-n-roll album I bought. I'd just started the 8th grade, buddy asked me "have you heard this?" It was the gateway album that started the addiction.

    Next came the sound track from "Easy Rider" (a movie I saw 14 times between 1969 and 1972), which led to "Steppenwolf."

    The hours I've spent with the big clunky headphones clamped on, listening to those drums go from ear to ear in stereo. Then towards the end of the solo, the synthesizer would faintly come in to the background and take over..........sigh.

    I have their vinyl albums, one live recording and one not. The live version is the best, and longest. I don't remember IB having any other real big hits. "In-A-Gadda- da Vida" was supposed to be "In the Garden of Eden" I believe. I love the drum solo. [:D]

    The end of the solo where the synth comes in and the drums just tapping out that rythematic beat is perfect for having on in the background while loving on a woman [:D]
