Me and my mate have been racking our brains over a song that used to be around probably in the late 60's or very early 70's. We know the name of the tune as being ''Turn the Page'' and it had a line in it that went something like ''The sound of the amplifiers ringin' in my ears''.

It was a bit of a moody piece, probably an American band along the lines of The Doors but its the bands name that we cant pin down though. Any one maybe in Uni around the time who could help?.

Daft post I know but its been buggin' us all day and no, I cant hum it either :rolleyes:

Title: Artist: BOB SEGER & THE SILVER BULLET BAND Song: TURN THE PAGE Album: GREATEST HITS (1994)

On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out it's one note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant all strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode

Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliche's, is it woman is it man?
You always seem outnumbered, so you don't dare make a stand

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play

Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage yeah
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, there I go
