This is a song that ah, had we, had we got the album out last um, last Audest, which might have been a godd idea, this would have been a beautiful song to typify the vibe that everything was on at the time. It's a song about summer and ah, inebriation, and ah, good times. It also requires a different tuning on the guitar. This is one for everybody who might still be in highschool. It's called Dancing Days.

Right, steady. Here's a song, here's a song that ah, brings to the microphone John Henry Bonham. You remember John Heny Bonham? Well, he's now turned into a vocalist. He first started off with an old Conway Twitty number, It's Only Make Believe, which was accidentily missed off the last album cause he paid us too much bread. ah This is one that comes from, was conceived rather, on the sode of one of the mountains in Wales that faces the sunrise, and ah, it's really about a blue eyed dog who I know very well.

It's getting very close to Christmas and ah, if we were all as straight as we used to be we should be at the office part now, but nevertheless, this is something that takes us nearly as far back as that. Mr. Jones.
