Der (Playback-) Auftritt von "On The Road Again" stammt aus dem Beat Club vom 14.09.1968.

In 1965, the blues- and boogie-rock band Canned Heat was formed in Los Angeles by guitar and harmonica player Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson and lead singer Bob "The Bear" Hite. They took the name for the band from an old delta blues song called Canned Heat Blues written by Tommy Johnson in 1928. The worldwide hit On The Road Again is best known for Wilsons unique high-pitched vocals and famous for its harmonica solo. Beside playing at all major festivals of the 60s Woodstock, Monterey Pop, Isle of Wight the band also travelled to Europe for concerts and TV appearances, e.g. the German Beat Club, where they performed the song in a lip-synched version. Tragically, on September 3, 1970 Alan Wilson died of a barbiturate overdose which led to numerous line-up changes in the following years. But the band still plays on today in the fifth decade of their existence.

Alan Wilson was nothing like Jim Morrison. for one thing, he was a true intellectual, rather than the fake Morrison was. For another, he wasn't "indulgent" at -all-. He was quite straight. I can't swear he never took any drugs, but if he did, it was less than the average high-schooler of that era. His barbiturate overdose was a suicide, -not- recreation gone wrong.
