Wouldn't say the cover was freaky. Infact, it sounded just like the original to me. lol

There doesn't seem to be any footage of Greenbaum. Not even a top of the pops?

i guess i was taking the video into account. the cover wasn't so much of a head trip, but the band was pretty freaky looking. i apologize if my comment was misleading or off-putting. sad
