....hey mister did you happen to see....pictures of lillie

When my young ears first sucked this tune into my head back in those mod 70s, everything about the sound and the group was rad. Hard rock! They were what FM was all about! Remember? Well re-discovery via youtube! Given a new jolt of love, it has been played along on fender, in total bliss, til fingers turned red and went numb. It's slipped in here tonight for that reason and because this wonderful tune is never played on the radio by anyone anymore. The next time it gets played in the airwaves will be the first time since....well....don't even know when. So here ya go. It is accompanied by a photo of the song's subject, and also a pic of the great Gary Cooper flick The Westerner, of which part of the plot revolves around the good guy staying alive long enough to introduce the bad guy to the song's girl. She's Lille Langtry. But you already knew that by now didn't you?
