The record company said there was no single on the album. So, they went back to the studio to come up with a single to support the album launch.
This song was the result. There highest charting single in their home country. (Yeah, even bigger than Smoke On The Water.)
Richie Jon play pretty wild solos on this, which may have been a middle finger to the record company.
