Seriously, with its catchy, uplifting, yet minimalist hook it is very American in a good way. You guys excel at joyful music.

Randall is on the Facebook Thunderbird group, posts occasionally.

That's good to hear.
52 years later, all the original members of Jo Jo Gunne plus Jimmie Randall are still living (don't know about the others). That's unusual for a 70s rock band.

Thank a fella named J.P. Sousa. One of the most brilliant march composers in history. Practically every march he ever wrote is an earworm. Marches may be out of favor as popular music, but every 4th you will find large crowds savoring every note, and his marches play continually with fireworks displays.

I like that march because it is so upbeat and life-affirming, nothing militaristic to it, even the freedom-lauding lyrics defy the usual nationalist themes.
