Note: Not written until late April or May 1975; the working title was "The Heist", the name used even on test pressing of the album. V1 contains just piano and vocal, features some different words and may be Bruce's original guide demo. V2 (take 14), V3 (take 15), and V5 (take 18) are short, aborted takes. V4 (take 16) and V6 (take 19) are work-in-progress versions with alternate horn arrangements. All were recorded on May 28, 1975 as "The Heist" with top session musician Randy Brecker on trumpet. Included on July 2 final and July 7 revised-final album sequences, thanks to Mike Appel, who fought tooth and nail to keep it on the album; Bruce wanted "Linda Let Me Be The One". The final album mixing sessions were on July 18, 1975.
