Just a brief ABB appreciation moment...

Nice but I prefer Zappa's version personally.

I've never heard the original before, so thanks for that. :cheers:

Can't say I prefer either version over the other. :eddy:

I've never heard any other version than the ABB one (Live at Filmore East, I think). I'll have to track down the Zappa version and see what he did with it.

Gracioso. I checked out the live version several days ago, but the reggae twist was new to me. Cool, but...the ABB version is etched too deeply in my mind. "Like I been TIED..." :levi:
