RIP

peering out of the chuck berry hole
dreams are real and the new becomes old
or so we're told

times are tough, yeah it's green until brown
face to face with a nuclear sound
hope's never found

black and blue, all the scars are hard-won
haven't seen that spirit here since 2001
all comes undone

Recorded for the last-ever installment of famed WFMU disc jockey Michael Shelley's series of '70s tribute comps, this is a cover of The Band's version of 'Don't Do It'.  The song was tracked and mixed at Kingsize Sound Labs in Chicago IL by John Abbey, and done completely live, with the exception of the organ overdub.
