Love this. I say it edges out Low’s version of “Africa” for first place in late 1970’s prog-folk covers by Duluth bands. He’s right, slightly creepy on the radio but awesome when they do it. I hated Thin Lizzy for years because of McRadio, until “The Boys are Back in Town” made sense to me hearing it anew in context of the Jailbreak album.

First place tie for Africa anyway…
