I don't hear this enough, and when I do hear it, it brings a smile - big time!

I saw James Gang play at Loraine County Community College in Elyria, Ohio in 1970. They were an up and coming band from Cleveland. As I remember this was right before James Gang Rides again was released. They played funk #49. Obviously I'll never forget it.

My wife & I had tickets to see them in Richmond at the Mosque, in 1971, maybe early '72. FIRST SHOW WITHOUT JOE WALSH. We Were

'72, I was keeping a fella's '66 Pontiac LeMan's white and black convertible in extreme south Chicago ready to drive away, and he said he'd be back in a half hour, and just play the stereo.
So I played 'Funk 49' (which oddly was on the 'Straight Shooter' raised-leather motif labeled 8-track tape that summer. Over and over again, while bending the notes by slightly pushing-in or pulling-out the cartridge. For 2 hours, till he finally got back, the low battery drawling the music slow. Lotta fun.

Geez, imagine a night out with Joe Walsh and Keith Moon like at 1:27! I'd definitely go, but with the understanding that I might not make it, and that would be ok
