I play this song for people and ask them who the band is. Invariably, they say, "The Dead, right?" They almost crap when they find out that it's the Riders. i forgot how good they were at this time......

@irvinginglethorpe Check out archive.org, then search under music for the Riders. You can find killer live versions of this one.
