    Kind of an extension of the Johnny B. Goode tradition. Not rockabilly, since there's a lot of 60's and 70's influence, kind of like "Moondog Matinee" from the band. Most of the guitar parts were recorded on a Gibson L-7, which I've had since 1969. It's still older than me. This (once again) dates to 1986. The song was re-recorded and remixed countless times this fall. The guitar solo is by "Steev" Schreiber. I first came across him by following the noise from a Marshall played in a second floor apartment in 1973.

    Story Behind the Song
    I'm old enough to remember many 50's classics coming out, especially since I had some really corrupt babysitters. It's kind of scary. The 50's were also generally not as wonderful as generally portrayed, but there were some real moments never the less.

    Lyrics
    "... All of the world's intrigues, are kind of out of my league, you know I don't read "The New York Times". And I can't take the jive, I get from nine to five, but I'm gonna leave my troubles behind, with my Rock And Roll Mind...
