"Some say they saw him down in Birmingham, sleeping in a boxcar going by. And if you think that you can tell a bigger tale, I swear to God you'd have to tell a lie."
Listening to this is like entering one of those weird antique shops that smells of incense full of religious imagery and wooden statues with an creepy old hippy woman at the counter.
Favourite Tracks: Swordfishtrombone, In The Neighborhood, Shore Leave, 16 Shells from a Thirty-Ought Six, Frank's Wild Years, Town With No Cheer [First added to this chart: 02/03/2017]
