Sing Me Back Home

Strand Lyceum

Jesus, what a combo. The hit you with a Dew, leave you in a daze for a couple minutes while they wrap up Other One, then finish you off with this Sing Me Back Home. TKO'ed.

What does this one have that 5/8 does not? Pig's organ. It gives a it a soul that is missing from 5/8. Yeah, yeah, yeah, vocal overdubs, but that's not the one I'm talking about. Beauty of this band is the real recordings survive and get to see the light of day.

Yup, 5/2/81. Great version.

I typically have shows on during the day when I'm putting around house with the kids. When something stops me and makes me notice, I give it a vote on here. LLR rarely if ever has done that, maybe outside of the '72 with Jerry on pedal steel (mostly for the novelty of it). This one, even with a B-B+ AUD recording grabbed my attention.

At least there is one other person out there who agrees this is one is a knock out!
