Pamela Talese and I just walked out of an unbelievable show by this band who are truly the tightest and loosest band - simultaneously - ever. But they played this song off their new album, dedicated to Garth Hudson. The Last Hawk.

A sweet and honest portrait of the sadness you feel when someone you admire but never truly knew passes away. Black Yaya's love for Lou is true!

Paul Westerberg's song for Bob Stinson is pretty simple - I mostly love it just for the way he works "hold my life" in there.
