Speaks his name...Go Cass...

Named my daughter after this song -- I know I am not alone!

[rumhead666]

Quick beats in an icy heart

A catch colt draws a coffin cart

There he goes and now here she starts

Hear her cry.

Flight of the sea birds

Scatter like lost words

Wheel to the storm and fly.

Is this the recording used on Reckoning?

[legunncat]

@KarenTheRetroHippie I don't think so. I am looking for that myself. However, I believe this was released in an extended version of those sessions.

[KarenTheRetroHippie]

@legunncat I think so too.

[legunncat]

@KarenTheRetroHippie Reckoning was my first dead album.

[KarenTheRetroHippie]

@legunncat Mine too!!

They did eight shows in a row from 10/22-31 at Radio City in 1980. Tracks 7–14 (disc 2) on "Reckoning" were recorded at Radio City Music Hall on October 23, 1980 (Complete acoustic first set missing only the opening track; "On The Road Again") If you like this you should check out the film "Dead Ahead" which was filmed on the 30th and 31.This clip was taken from that film. Another noteworthy aspect of this show is that it was Brent's first time playing out with the band.
