This is just ignorant! Considering that "higher ground," is a Stevie Wonder
song, how could Flea have lifted it from Hawkwind? Come on, it is a simple
progression of E,G,A; I wonder which drummer lifted the idea of the kick
being on the 1's and 3's and the snare being on the 2's and 4's; maybe he or
she is a fan of hawkwind also. Perhaps Hawkwind are fans of Stevie Wonder...
