Clapton explained, "It's as close as I can get, being English, but the band being a Tulsa band, they play like that naturally. You couldn't get them to do an English rock sound-no way. Their idea of a driving beat isn't being loud or anything. It's subtle. " The single was a crossover country music hit, reaching #26 in April 1978, Clapton's best showing on that chart.
