Well, I'm not sure where this originates from but it could be the version that also features a short interview that used to appear on bootleg cassettes with the 'Beat Club' material. That also featured a short interview which, may or may not, be missing here if it is indeed that version (I need to find the tape!) However, this is pretty awesome despite the rather rough start and ending!! Paul Rodgers is in fine form and Simon Kirke pushes the track along like his life depends on it. Sadly it has the strange 'chord' sequence in the middle rather than a full out blast from Koss (no wonder he felt he was getting squashed). I once asked Andy Fraser about this and he said he had absolutely no idea what possessed then to put that in the song there, replacing the solo. Lovely to see Kossoff smiling however. Absolutely outstanding.

Thanks to S-M-S for putting this gem up.
