i love that song! (i love uncle kracker, kid rock's former dj.. love kid
rock, too) anyhoo, not only did he stay true to the song and do a fabulous
rendition.. he got dobie gray to do vocals on the track. (dobie gray
performed the song that shot to the top of the charts originally, in 1973)
i downloaded it from bearshare last week. *yes... it's copyright
