Rick Nielson may have squashed the demo tape after he first heard this tune, but this song could not be snuffed out - The Flame endures! We dive into the history of Cheap Trick and the circumstances that forced them to accept a song by outside writers. We also discuss the power of a guilt-free pleasure, how this song fits into our podcast's wheelhouse, and how we are so glad you have joined us today! Wherever you go, Bill and Frank's Guilt-Free Pleasures goes with you!
