The song was originally written for the Mott album," vocalist Ian Hunter recalled to Classic Rock magazine. The piano I had was an upright that cost me 30 bob, and I'd slammed all the white keys out. So I made myself learn how to play the black ones, which was great because I didn't understand what I was doing. The song featured backing vocals from female trio Thunderthighs, who consisted of Karen Friedman, Dari Lalou and Casey Synge, They'd provided the backing vocals to Lou Reed's hit single, "Walk On The Wild Side" the previous year and later recorded their own hit single "Central Park Arrest", which reached in the UK Singles Chart in 1974. De Paul had written "Central Park Arrest" for the all-girl threesome). It was De Paul who gave Grosvenor his new moniker. The band and I were in Frankfurt, doing five days of television together," she recalled.
