Orchestra as they changed their style just a little bit.
The album was level headed, that's sweet and love is

Just a little side story to go along with that song.
It was years ago that I went to Jamaica for
the first time. And we get off the plane in
Montego Bay, work our way through customs. Now we're on
a bus and we're heading out to Runaway Bay. It
As we're driving, the bus driver turns to us and says,
now here's the deal, folks. Our agriculture down here is
(54:45):
a little different than what you're used to up in
the States. If you're not careful, man, you could have
a dreadlock holiday. From the album Bloody Tourists, there's ten
c C putting the raps. He was right by the
way putting the raps on the Way Back Machine nineteen.

When the album was released on that song hit the radio,
a lot of people thought it was the Electric Light
Orchestra as they changed their style just a little bit.
The album was level headed, that's sweet and love is
like oxygen. We're celebrating the tenth anniversary of Don's Basement tapes,
and we promised to go just a little bit deeper
than we normally do on some of these albums. And

Just a little side story to go along with that song.
It was years ago that I went to Jamaica for
the first time. And we get off the plane in
Montego Bay, work our way through customs. Now we're on

As we're driving, the bus driver turns to us and says,
now here's the deal, folks. Our agriculture down here is
(54:45):
a little different than what you're used to up in
the States. If you're not careful, man, you could have
a dreadlock holiday. From the album Bloody Tourists, there's ten
c C putting the raps. He was right by the
way putting the raps on the Way Back Machine nineteen.
