Who was it recorded 'Sporting Life', btw?

That'sthe one. I came across it on an album called 'Blues for your Pocket', which has some real peaches on it. I don't remember it being by them, though.

As for the kind words - you deserve them! smiley - smiley

Well, it may well have been covered by a variety of artists. When i did a search for the song, Jimmy Page showed up as well. Maybe you are thinking of his version?
