Man, this cat went out rockin' until the very end. We salute you cat.

I was 11 when this came out. When I was 48 the band came to Albuquerque where I now live which was bizarre because very few acts ever come to Albuquerque! So when I saw Bazza walking across the bar I asked him for a photo, he obliged and spent the next few hours before their set, and a good chunk of time after, sitting with me and my wife chatting about everything from Bowie to thrift stores and charity shops! This video epitomizes what I saw in Bazza that night in that he genuinely loved what he did and truly adored his fans. I'm not too proud to admit that it still brings a small tear to my eye watching this knowing he's no longer with us to entertain those he loved so much.

I loved this song when I was 17. Still love it. RIP Barrie😢

Bitter sweet, brought a tear to my eyes. Remember top of the pops on the eve of punk. Thank you Barrie.

Fantastic, the greatest and most inspiring song of all time ever !

I'm sure he had a good life (I hope) and bless him. Great being a teenager+ in the 1970's. Great music and change.

R.I.P Barrie Masters, TRUE LEGEND

He's great here. Such a sad loss.

The best record ever made👍

still is ,always was ,will always be, superb ,thee total kids anthem of the 70"s and still(imo) stands the test of time/music)

Well 2 years on since my last comment and still nothing to touch it. Still possibly the best record ever mate.🤟

I was 12 when this was released , loved it ever since..... never gets old , always loved the energy and lyrics ,,, which could be the epitath on my headstone . .... Hopefully not tomorrow !!! 😅. Cheers for the post Cheers for the music " The Rods " think I'll play the 7" AGAIN,, later ,, not quite worn out , but close !!! 👌👍🙏😍

Saw these lads at Derby Kings Hall 1977 with Squeeze and Radio Stars. Thrilling gig for a callow 15 year old. Great energy and showmanship. Bitter sweet to see this - though it's clear the soul hadn't aged. RIP Mr Masters.

Excuse my language, but this is just fucking amazing ! God bless you Barrie boy.

This song changed my life.

When this single was released, it was, released by Rods. For some reason Eddie and the Hot were dropped. Was released on Island Records

Uno de mis mejores conciertos, en el Pabellón de La Casilla de Bilbao ( creo que en 1979) junto a los Bishops y a los Stranglers; el grupo Cráter ( de Madrid) no pudo tocar porque Llan Llacks Burnel le rompió la nariz a uno de sus componentes. Me lo dijo Cipri de Barakaldo ( de los 091) en el mismo Pabellón, que él lo vio. Vino la ambulancia y se llevó a ese componente. Un fuerte recuerdo a Barry Máster, un conciertazo...durante una de las canciones se subió a una torre de bafles y de lanzó hasta el escenario. Descanse en paz: Viva el rock and roll. La mejor música del mundo.

one of my first groups i saw at guilford wow takes me back ... thanks for the music barry rip❤
