This and the title track off the first album are in a dead heat.
When they did their final show [documented in "The End Of The End"], they closed the show with "Children..."
Awesome tune.
That overdubbed tom-tom thing adds such a unique sound.
And the chaotic feel near the end with Tony playing 2 separate leads.
Sort of the official launch of heavy metal.
