morrison was a poet consequently as all did , loved the blues, then congregates with musicians with classical origin. that we call the rebel, and not know what to call the music. thank you the Steve!

Is the musical bed not 'Midnight Freight and a Drifter's Dream'? Reason why I ask is because I looked up 'Renegade' and couldn't find a track with trains and marimbas, both lovely inclusions in any track in my book
