The track is part of the covers album These Grey Men and sees the pair giving a new version of the 1972 hit.

Dolmayan said of the new album: “While I was driving, I would turn on the radio and listen to whatever was playing. Sometimes I would hear something and wonder how I would play and arrange it now.”

He added: “I actually started making a list of about 30 songs that I wanted to cover. I took inspiration from driving in the desert and listening to music. System wasn't making music and I needed to unleash my artistic energy. So, I cut the list and called some artists I wanted to work with.”
