Never realised this song I love by Joe Bonamassa was originally a Tim Curry song..and quite controversial because of a four letter word in it.

Guitars were by
Bob Kulick (Kiss, Meatloaf, Balance, etc)
Dick Wagener (Alice Cooper)
Michael Kaman on keys (famous producer/arranger - did a lot of orchestra scores for rock bands to use like Metallica)

Song was written by Kaman and Bob Ezrin who is the producer for Kiss and Alice Cooper as well as Lou Reid
Dick Wagener was considered Ezrin's pet guitarist and Bob Kulick was favoured by Ezrin during Kiss recording when Ace couldn't make it
