ubuntourist May 31, 2011 - 14:10	I'm rather partial to the version of this as done by "Screamin'" Ronnie Hawkins and The Band on "The Last Waltz". In fact, I had to briefly mute RP to see if it was as good as I remembered. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQebygSuxgg Ahhh, AHhhh, AHHhhhhhh, AHHHHHHH! It is! (Maybe it's just that they seem to be having such a damned fine time on stage with it.) [ Reply ]

CalOF Mar 29, 2011 - 09:58	Wow, haven't heard this in decades. Takes me back to freshman year in college. Wonder if I have that scratchy old vinyl somewhere?? [ Reply ]

Most of the songs from the first album appear on their Greatest Hits album Sons of Mercury and on Bill's playlist. Their second album, Happy Trails , wasn't nearly as good. So I guess I'd call them a one-album wonder. Thanks for the blast from the past, Bill. As someone noted below - you love this song which is from the second album which you pan.

What an amazing live band - they didn't know how good they were, I don't think. [ Reply ]

Maybe, but it doesn't have John Cippolina and Gary Duncan playing guitar - one of the trippiest duos ever. And, well, all my young adulthood memories are attached to this one. And, Bill, you should just go ahead and play the long version - the short one leaves all the best parts out - edit out the drum solo if you wish but play the rest, please. I'm begging here. [ Reply ]

I do not have my copy here at work, but I am certain that this song (not the stupidly shortened version here) was on Happy Trails. So, please explain how it is that you diss happy trails while praising the selection of this song, eh? [ Reply ]
