Suzi Quatro: 48 Crash (1973)

OK! Suitably refreshed? Who fancies a song about late-onset hypogonadism? Not to your liking? Well, how about the 1848 US economic collapse? Whatever is to your taste, I hope you'll enjoy this one from Suzi Quatro as it's been rumoured to be about one of these topics (or maybe both). Ace glam rock songwriting team, Chinn and Chapman, are said to have claimed to be able to write a song about any subject and certainly  rose to the challenge here. On the other hand, perhaps it's just your regular pop-glam bollocks. Whichever way the wind blows, this follow-up to the awesome 'Can the Can' is simply wonderful and provided Suzi with a number 3 hit on the RAK label back in 1973. Loved it then and the feeling's never changed.
