Notes
edit- "Rolling Stoned" is a cover of the Black Mastiff song. Garcia produced Black Mastiff's second album, Music Machine, which released a year later.[4]
- "5000 Miles" was written by Danko Jones specifically for Garcia after Garcia often conversed with Jones about missing his family while touring.[5]
- "Her Bullets' Energy" is the oldest song on the record, written when Garcia was nineteen years old. Robby Krieger from The Doors performs on the track.[6]
- "All These Walls" is a re-recording of the song "Cactus Jumper" by Garcia's band Slo Burn, which appeared on demo tapes and unofficial releases of the band's EP, Amusing the Amazing. The song features bassist Nick Oliveri.[6]
