"Nobody Rides For Free"by Grant Hart (formerly in Husker Du), music video by Laki Vazakas; Charley Plymell notes: "I first met Grant at B's [William Burroughs] funeral. Charles Henri Ford has a cameo in this and Ray Bremser kissing the bird. Funny story when Angelica, daughter of keyboard jazz great, Paul Bley, who lives here, brought the bird to the party, Claude said 'I deedn't know whether to say tweet tweet or twat twat!'"
