Yet another of the great songs from the Coverdale/Page album.
Again, I can only take credit for a few corrections and additions,
Chuck Horowitz gets the rest (Chuck, I'm indebted to you for
life). I absolutely love this one -- but remember to retune
your guitar...

Page's sounds and various tricks but this one its pretty good.

And return to the main riff.
One note, after the fourth verse and through the end of the song,
that really weird effect is a whammy pedal, an octavia, and a vintage wah
running in series.
