Man, Slade is such a sleeper band nowadays. Folks don't realize how much they influenced music in their day, and how much of the rock landscape they still influence indirectly.
They don't get a lot of attention (even by us old farts that were around when they were a fairly big name), but there's a fucking lot of great songs in their discography.
I mean, this and runaway would be enough for most band's legacy, but I don't think they put out any songs that sucked at all
