Listening to this masterpiece once again, you just have to forgive Rod for his many indulgences in the years since. Here he made enduring rock 'n' roll that can't be ignored. By the way, it's a bit shocking to realize that Mercury originally plugged 'Reason To Believe' -- as good as it is -- as the A side of this 45. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Mercury Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and pristine sound.
