Sedan Delivery (from: Rust Never Sleeps)

I worked for Cole's Bookstore in Toronto on Yonge
street in 65, but sedan delivery was the best job i
ever had.

It sure was hard to find.

Love all the changes of pace in this tune and the gritty guitar work. It also makes me think of sedan delivery vehicles of which the much older models make awesome custom cars. IIRC, there'a also a slowed down version on the Chrome Dreams boot collection which is also very nice to hear.

Live Rust was my point of entry to Neil and Rust Never Sleeps was one of my earliest vinyl acquisitions, but this version, especially with the fan reactions, is still my fav.

When Bad Got Good (from: The Visitor)

it's a time. but don't hold yer breath!
love not hate

 

"The King is gone but he's not forgotten..."

(sorry I just can't help myself)

 

Among my favorite lyrics... ever...

It was then I knew I'd had enough,
Burned my credit card for fuel
Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand
With a one-way ticket to the land of truth
And my suitcase in my hand
How I lost my friends I still don't understand.
They had the best selection,
They were poisoned with protection
There was nothing that they needed,
Nothing left to find
They were lost in rock formations
Or became park bench mutations
On the sidewalks and in the stations
They were waiting, waiting.
So I got bored and left them there,
They were just dead weight to me
Better down the road without that load

Fly By Night Deal (from: The Visitor)

 

One of my favs from the album, just wish it was a bit longer.

Almost Always (from: The Visitor)

 

My first NYCH concert was RNS at Pine Knob and I remember most vividly the fast slow Sedan Delivery with the flashing drum kit. I was shocked and blown away and it’s still a favorite NY tune of mine. Hard to beat the RNS version with all the extra guitar overdubs, but Live Rust and Year of the Horse versions are great, too. As is the 1975(?) studio version that’s different but pretty warped nonetheless.

Expecting To Fly (stereo)(from: Buffalo Springfield Again Stereo)

Jack Nietzsche . . . genius music man - takes me
into the studio after we spend weeks writing a
chart, working everyday. Bruce Botnick engineer. I
am lucky I was there.
