A bit over analytical after it's finished I think, but I'm glad she's found the song  She's also very calm about it. First time I heard it - day of release, 1973 - it completely blew me away. So much so, that I had to buy another copy of the album a few weeks later, I'd played it that much. Didn't get the free poster second time, which pi$$ed me off no end, but I managed to get another one years later. She should be on her knees in worship. It's the greatest piece of music she will ever hear. She might as well shut down her YouTube channel now  |

I do wish Bagpuss wouldn't do that to Zippy while we're listening to 4500x

To be honest, I wasn't to keen on it when I first heard it nearly 50 years ago, but eventually it grew on me and when I first heard it live in Southend in 1975, I was dumbstruck.

Live was the first time I ever heard it, and I was definitely dumbstruck!

Good review if a little drawn out from a great album. Got to say though I prefer the Rock til you drop (1991) 4500 Times version. Longer & a lot more power in the whole song, guitars, drums & vocals are far superior.
