launchpad67a Posted September 28, 2004 Author Share Posted September 28, 2004 Nope, both those are incorrect. Try again. Hint: It was written in late 1968. Ged, Alex and John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushRevisited Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Fancy Dancer? Or was that not their own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
launchpad67a Posted September 28, 2004 Author Share Posted September 28, 2004 I don't think that was their song. More hints: It was before any of these tunes...Sing Guitar, Morning Star, Margerite, Feel So Good, Love Light and Garden Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the Fancy Dancer chorus the template for Anthem, in which case it must be their's?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
launchpad67a Posted September 28, 2004 Author Share Posted September 28, 2004 To be honest, I'm not familiar with Fancy Dancer. I don't remember reading anything about that in my books. No, it's not Finding My Way. This song was never recorded to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonraker Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Run Willie Run was one of their originals. I dunno if it was the first. Slaine here looks pretty confident in his answer though, and I think I recognize that name Jeff Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
