Vince Lovegrove was known for many things - co-vocalist with Bon Scott in The Valentines in the 1960s / manager of the Divinyls / AIDS activist / journalist / his later band Mongrels Of Passion etc.

He also released a couple of solo singles on small Adelaide labels in the early '70s. This track was the B-side of Rented Room Blues, released on Pepper in 1971. It is interesting in that the song was also recorded by Fraternity (with Bon Scott) as the title track of their first album, and that is the band backing Vince on this recording.

The single reached #30 in Adelaide but probably only had limited distribution and so was not a hit elsewhere.
