I'm pretty sure I saw them perform this song live a couple of times. I think one was at the Roundhouse when Peter was still in the band(not 100%on this ) but the other was at the Marquee club after Jeremy had quit and the reason I'm sure thay did this is cause there were very few if any songs with a blues shuffle beat in their set at this time, and many of the fans missed that aspect , having remembered how they could kick up a storm in this type of numbers .So when the song had progressed ,and the audience realised when it got to he middle blues shuffle sections of this song , they showed their appreciation by clapping and whooping Fans with them from early on missed this aspect of their show and this was the closest it got at that time .

Just to be clear here, this was the Welch line-up, playing a gig at the Marquee, right? Fall 1971?

Yes it was the Welch /Kirwan line up. I definitely saw this line up play a couple of times at least, and one was definitely the Marquee club (when it was in Wardour Street )whether it was the autumn of 1971 I don't remember - Do the records say this was the only time that line up played there ? This was the occassion when Mick was drooling sometimes whilst he played , and Mc vie comforted him at some point( as I described in another posting somewhere )Bob Welch was very impressive, but as I said ,those of us that went back to the Jeremy and Peter days missed the full pelt blues shuffles that they did so well ,so we were grateful for even a limited display of it .
