EATB's cover of In The Midnight Hour is better than LLL, but Ian did a good job of pulling out the best bits of LLL and putting them together so it's at least listenable. I've always like the Indian Dawn Remix version.

It's on the Crystal Days box set. It's available at amazon.com for download. I think I read somewhere that they were just fooling around before a recording session and they did this song. It's very good.

Crystal Days also has Soul Kitchen. That's from the Scandanavian covers tour. That's better than LLL too.

Thanks- I'm hoping to get the "physical" edition for my birthday, but I think I'll download a couple of songs ahead of time.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Jack why is your ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ so much funnier than mine?

Mac covering Lover, Lover, Lover is the best thing that ever happened to Leonard Cohen. Live the song was much more rockin' than the album version.
