yes Scott McCaughey on Rickenbacker bass (the bass belongs to fellow-Venusian Peter Buck)

[jnf1222]

Is that the guy from Minus 5/R.E.M. on rickenbacker? It must be. Minus 5 is tha bizzle

You can't buy this song ANYWHERE. It's not a vendor (iTunes) issue.  For whatever reason RH won't reissue this song. None of his box-sets have it. Bummer.

[pnice000]

[stezothewhitenegro]

[stezothewhitenegro]

Hmmmmm

maybe it was the mid to late 80's

that decade was a complete blur

[hobbitspice]

Awesome! Do you have the original video for it? I've been looking everywhere for it. I know there has to be one 'cause I remember Request Video playing it..

[qiput]

sweet and sultry gray, but the sound oh the sounndd! thank!

[stgeorge2007]

not fair :( i went to 3 RH+V3 shows in england and they didn't play this song once :(

[jrebstock]

i wish i could buy this song (studio version) on iTUNES...but it aint available on iTUNES...iTUNES SUCKS.

[skrason]

C'mon now. iTunes rocks. Sure, it doesn't have everything. You need to let Apple know what you want or they will never carry it. :)

[oldphoque]

Best thing to do is always buy a hard copy! Rip & Burn it! If you just buy songs, you miss alot!

[rebjiii]

oldphoque...someone posted the studio version on youtube....with the globe album cover....see 'related vidoes'...

[JangleRocker]

Thanks for posting. Great show.
