During the Paris sessions in 1973 we recorded a backing track of one of Linda's ideas. The song was completed many years later and the vocal finally added in 1998. Its gutsy feel is typical of her unwillingness to put up with other people's bullshit. She hated words like "should" and "compromise". For her, freedom to do what ou want was a basic right.
