Remember seeing them in concert. After a couple of songs the auditorium went completely dark, then a column of flame shot straight up from the stage on the opening notes of this song. Whole place went nuts! Well, except for the cranky old guy sitting in front of us, he kept telling people to sit still; and we kept telling him that it wasn't a Beethoven concert and we rocked on. Salt Lake City, c.1969
