The guitar fills and main solo were performed by Kent Henry. Pinera plays the guitar solo at the end of the song. The song was inspired by the number of keys on Pinera's Rhodes piano. Pinera said, "Okay, I need a first word. And what came into my head was '73.' I liked the rhythm, and I went, '73 men sailed up, from the San Francisco Bay.'...The song sort of just wrote itself from there." In the lyrics, the crew invite others to ride along with them to new land, where they will feel free. However, the local people are too preoccupied with life's troubles to hear or answer their call. When the crew set sail, they are never seen or heard from again. The Captain rides with his crew on a mystery ship, which disappears forever. (en)
