Anything indeed. Pure (tragic) Genius.

I was a beginning my Junior Year in HS in the fall of 64 when "Oh, Pretty Woman" descended upon us. I wasted my youth in Nick's pool hall on main street in Gloucester every single moment that I could. I wrongly figured to make my fortune hustling my life away in that magic venue. :rofl: . I digress. Pretty Women was a truly sexually inspiring song for adolescent men. Always thought of it as the essential update (passsive to active) of "Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by." Anyway, to the point: Nick's jukebox played constantly in those days and for the rest of my two year HS residency, Pretty Woman played nearly constantly. Obviously can't say how much, but I like to say 25 times a day. Old Nik seemingly retired on "oh, Pretty Woman". We all just loved that song.

Cheers

For those that like electric guitar. A really nice effort from Mick Taylor.
