The ‘Mats liked them enough to cover them on what would be their best album and it wasn’t an ironic hipster decision. They liked the song. They liked the band. It’s a great track.
Redemption! Maybe!
The studio version on Let It Be played very, very, VERY loud - man - it will make your ears bleed while you’re jumping in the air slashing out gigantic air guitar riffs!!

You still can't beat the KISS version, we even had a poll which proved that.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

One can never beat an original, but they can do it justice.

Am I correct that this version omits or truncates Ace’s solo on the original?
Yes, it is heavily remixed and edited, with added keyboards and backing vocals.
They needed the added keyboards to fight for the Black Diamond. It was their only hope.
I like the cut of your jib.

Do you hear Doc? I have a potential ally here.
I was deeply scared of KISS as a kid (I was born in 1977). I’d see them and start yelling, but as a red blooded dope smoking American kid - they became cool. You could tell the “cool” music freaks from the followers. The cool kids were listening to Destroyer and the followers were listeining to Zep. I do love Led Zeppelin, but I’m glad I chanced upon KISS because they really were good. They figured out how to make hard rock catchy. Potential ally? Heck, my friend - you have an ally!
So Bizzaro World is a real place?
