Hi John
I’ve watched your video on YouTube regarding the remix of the title track. As ever, thanks for sharing.
I have a couple of supplementary questions , if I may.
Is it Rick playing the outro riff....I read somewhere it was based on Singing In the Rain !!
There’s an extra round of the chorus before the outro....was this the way it was originally intended in 77 but perhaps cut as radio likes shorter songs ?
Did Andy come up with the famous piano intro off the cuff?
And finally......it was interesting that you said you thought the track had been recorded later than the others.....both Rick and Francis in separate interviews remember it as the last track they did!
Is it possible you are actually all right but the tapes were incorrectly labelled ?
Thanks again👍
PS Have you heard the new Quo album Backbone, and what do you think ?

I'm curious too. Let's tag pupcious (with the @ symbol) so he gets a notification. I think Andy's intro was as you state though. They asked him to play something á la Jerry Lee Lewis, he did, and they sort of tagged it onto the already finished recording!
