A rather flat version of an original instumental jam played live as a four piece in the studio.we played reserved compared to normal renditions. others wanted this on the album, i voted no. we made our 35 minutes. thank god!

A humorous jab at Caribbean political leaders in light of widespread corruption & abuse of power .
