Some Velvet Morning is so classic. Art Bell used to play this in his bumper music all the time. I have turned so many people on to this duo's records. You never cease to amaze with every show. Loving every minute of every show.

Some Velvet Morning is one oddball pop tune. Is it a cautionary tale? Is it about the love between a man and a woman? A contrast between light and dark? Here is the wiki on the song if anyone is interested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Some_Velvet_Morning

I'm absolutely amazed that there hasn't been a snide-as-fuck, sped up, punk cover version of I Only Have Eyes For You.

When I was (more of a) young punk, I thought Some Velvet Morning was a Rowland S Howard and Lydia Lunch tune. Silly me, 'til I heard the original 🤣 Killer classics today Renny, thank you!
