Rather interesting, I always wondered about this. So if you were gonna list
recording dates for this you'd have to say '75/sometime in the early '80s. I
love that "popping", though I think of it more as "the machine gun", and when
playing air-instruments to this, I take that stance. as for the vox, I
actually dig Dave, especially that "ohhh!!" towards the end, which actually
isn't present on some Anthology/AD versions, requiring yet another Codex
entry just for one stupid little (but very awesome) "Ohhhh!".
hmm, Chuck
