CRAZY ON YOU
“Crazy on You” is the debut American single from the rock band Heart. It was the first single following the release of their debut album Dreamboat Annie, released in 1976 (two earlier Canadian singles had preceded the release of the album). Starting with an acoustic guitar intro called “Silver Wheels”, the song turns into fast-paced rock song that was the signature sound of the band in their early years. “Crazy on You” attracted attention both for the relatively unusual combination of an acoustic guitar paired with an electric guitar, and the fact that the acoustic guitarist was a female – a rarity in rock music during that time.

The first album by Heart, Dreamboat Annie was released in 1975 and is one of my favorite albums of the 1970’s. The album spawned two hit singles, “Magic Man” and “Crazy on You”; but it sounds even better as an album to these ears. Numerous hit albums followed, with hits that included “Barracuda”, “Dog and Butterfly”, “These Dreams”, “What About Love?”, “All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You”, and many more.
