I'd Love to Change the World, by Ten Years After
IMO this is one of the greatests classic rock songs of the early 1970's, with superb guitar work by Alvin Lee and lyrics that are still relevant today.
I haven't heard it on the radio in a very long time, probably because of the "dykes and fairies" line which many may find offensive today. Keep in mind that 1971 was a different era, and in no way was the inclusion of those words meant to be anti-gay. The point was to express the controversies and problems of the times.
If you've never heard this before, or remember it fondly as a blast from the past, give your ears a treat:
