Montrose - Space Station #5 (part your hair rock)

Featuring the Red Rocker on vocals. Best played with the amp at eleven.





Start with a Sun and move on out
The future's in the skies above
The Heavens unfold and a new star is born
Space and time makin' love
Oh, what a time we had
Livin' underground
I move to station number five
See you next time around
Next time around
As far as you want and close as you need
It's all in your mind you know
This old Earth hasn't really seen it's day
It's here, time to go
Oh, what a time we had
Livin' underground
I move to station number five
See you next time around
I remember when it was so clear
We were young but the memory still remains
To pick fruit from a tree, fish from the seas
Now nothin's left here but the stains
But I can't cry no more, can only be glad
That there's other places we can be
If the time suites you right I'm leaving tonight
Come fly away with me!=, yeah, yeah
Start with a Sun and move on out
The future's in the skies above
The Heavens unfold and a new star is born
Space and time makin' love
Oh, what a time we had
Livin' underground
I move to station number five
See you next time around
Next time around, yeah, yeah

Produced by Ted Templeman, who went on to sign and produce The Doobie Brothers and Van Halen, among many others.

The album is short because Templeman wanted the grooves on the vinyl to be cut deeper, so you could play it extra loud.

I played slide to get that revving sound.
Oh, and I sang it.
Here's my favorite. Played it at jam nights.

Motor Scooter." Especially since you sang it.

"Rock Candy" is great, but I do prefer "Bad Motor Scooter."
