Glad to see you're trying to raise awareness of the underrated awesomeness of this track (and band)

Lucky! It's an over-hated LP among 'Mats fans, but this song’s Top 20 all-time for me.

Long single-track LP sides can attract more dust/static since they’re cut with tighter grooves to fit all the audio, leaving no silent gaps to break up friction or discharge static. TL:DR - the stylus stays in continuous contact for 20+ minutes, which builds more charge and attracts dust.

Walk Away Renee is an absolute all-timer for me.
And another thing I love about those 50s/60s LPs are the back cover notes which functioned as a long-form written advertisement + essay + listening guide + mythmaking.
Happy listening!

Team Speedwagon, eh?
I’m Team Sweatin’ to the Oldies…but perhaps we can both agree that Screech (RIP Dustin Diamond) would have been an excellent choice to have played Slim in a biopic?
