    This song is about a young man who becomes a pilot on a riverboat and that the boat (Bonita) piles up on a river bank and becomes a wreck (derelict). The language is pure river and it don't get any better than that.

  • One of the great, great moments of my life was seeing these guys from the 2th row of the wang theater in Boston. Talk about a tight unit. The synchronicity is truly amazing

  • the log jam was Shreveport La and Lake Bisteneau is east of the Red River, years ago connected all the way up, and down to New Orleans, through the boonies-is-the-law Godforsaken river ways. These boats lay vine covered in time for only these songs endure.
