Black, Red, Yellow
I promise not to hold my breath, but I’d still love to someday be treated to a “Black, Red, Yellow” –> “Black” –> “Red Mosquito” –> “Yellow Ledbetter” tetralogy. The return of the “Hail, Hail” b-side to the live stage after 9+ years (from 1996 - 2005) was a treat, with the scrappy, junkyard rock homage to basketball star (and friend/fan of the band) Dennis Rodman fitting in remarkably well with the rest of the ‘06 sets. Two Feet Thick offers a pretty great decoding of some of the tune’s lyrics, my favorite of which is likening Bulls coach Phil Jackson to “Freud walkin’ the sidelines”. Nothing monumental, just a great dirty little rock tune.
I don’t think “Black Red and Yellow” returned in 2006 - I think it was one year prior. The version I’ve heard is only okay - Cameron should have had a more prominent role with those octave harmonies in the verses.
You’re right. I’ll fix that. I was getting my dates all confused. ‘Twas the Canada shows eh?
Yep. London is the one I’m familiar with. I don’t think Cameron did it the service that Irons did.
this was my first favorite on Lost Dogs…had never heard it before…maybe never again…
