Like a racehorse charging out of the gate, winning it wire to wire. I'm diggin' '82 more and more.

Promised Land

It's a Promised Land from 1972 - you should know what to expect. An uptempo rocker that's a nice listen.

Jerry's guitar soars on this one. Really good vocals, too.

Nice short development into The Wheel.

I like the vocals and Vince does a good job holding the fort until Bruce arrives.

I disagree. I don't think this slow tempo is right for this song. I want a little funky rock & roll ditty - not some snail's pace bar tune. You can't blame the age of the people voting for 3-14-90 - there is something different happening there. You can feel this emotional outburst coming from Jerry when he belts out his "Thank you"s and his "For a real good time". You can tell he's quivering with passion and that the song is a heart-felt tune of appreciation.
