    lonnie mack also played bass on morrison hotel, at least some songs.

    from what i recall they used a bassist in the studio often but live ray played the part with a keyboard.

    not sure about their two or three post morrison albums
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
