I asked Roky why he played this at solar fest 84 early afternoon, just a few fans, mostly families around, and he said; 'you know, cuz it's a folk song' lol

i got this burned on a disc for me from an mp3. I'M SO FUKN HAPPY! Whoever decided this version shouldn't be included on the re-release of this album must have a problem with Roky Erickson's greatness because not including this version on the CD IS A SERIOUS disservice to Mr. Erickson.This cover is a SCREAMING testament to what MONSTER OF ROCK Roky is.

Ha, awesome cover. Not as 'loving' to heroin as the original one, this one seems to be more in a third-person view.

Fuck you guys, why isnt roky a middle aged soft rocker in a band called the Poo Fighters, earning cash living on past reputations?

Lou Reed's song. Roky's version here sounds more like a heroin & crystal speedball, but I dig it.
