It wasn't that great TBH and I prefer my Green Manalishi with Rob Halford on vocals and Glenn Tipton and KK Downing on a double-guitar attack.

And speaking of liking something more than an original, I know someone is gonna bite my head off when I say this, but I prefer Lindsey's take on Oh Well. He adds a different flavor to it that makes it sound...better (I've never been crazy for the blues unless you count Bonnie Raitt and Led Zeppelin doing a few bluesy songs).
Would somebody PLEASE pass the antacids? I think I'm going to yak.

If you {gag!} like Lindsey's version of "Oh Well", seek out the live version that is on the B-side of the "As Long As You Follow" single, with Billy Burnette on vocals and Rick Vito on lead guitar. The song doesn't get much better than that.

Too late. But, I appreciate the plug.

"Might"??? I think it is pretty much a "given".

Have you tried pouring hydrogen peroxide into your ears? I think the wax build-up is getting pretty thick.
