Week ending July 5th 1973 - No More Mister Nice Guy entered the UK Top 20 singles chart (when it meant something) at number 13, peaking the following week at number 10 where it stayed for two weeks.

It was to be his last UK Top 10 hit until Poison made number 2 in 1989.

It still sounds like magic!

It sure does. There was a period when I felt bored with it, but over the last decade it's been a toe-tapper for me. Good stuff!!!

My all-time fav. Many nights spent in 1973 and beyond trying to air guitar to that (in the privacy of my room - I was a shy kid).
P.S. I was crap at air guitar

This guy does a pretty good job showing how the riff should be played
