Comment:

Songs about trouble with the law, time in prison, etc. They tell a bit of a story, since it starts with The Fellow on the run and ends with a hanging. Bits and pieces of radicalism and four (count 'em!) murders in a row. Inspired by a recent country-ish mix of the same theme. I offer this mix to anyone who wants it. I don't think I'll give it to someone I know, in case they get the wrong idea.
