To this day I still include this song on compilations. Yep, still making them. As poignant now for me as it was the first day I heard it. It's like fresh clean air. Grace and perfection, crushed into something better than a diamond. A desert island song that has always plucked my heart strings. Everytime I hear it I never want it to end. This track was hard to come by before it was included in the Creatures re-release in the early 90's. It was on some skate video soundtrack (legit or not) and many sketchy tape trades.
I was guest at his parent's house before we went to Vancouver in 1996. Instead of putting the bible on the bed where I slept he put Hunter Thompson's, Fear and loathing in Las Vegas on the pillow. Religion only breeds contempt!
@@paulsavage5057 When you’re famous, you may have many aliases. But I knew Bible Joe before he was getting his teeth broken in Vancouver club fights, when he’d call Momma Jean back in Calgary to send money for him to get them fixed, when he was like 22 years old.
monsieur John Neptune! You probably don’t remember me but I stayed at your parents place when we were headed to Vancouver, afterwards. Hope you are okay and I will always remember driving there and trying to write a song with me and J.R.

Such a great song, that stands up against anything from the era.
It really is incredible should have made the lp. Or was this after. The lp was just ok. Barely
Why wasn't it on the album is an abomination to me
This should've been officially released in its day (1981)...!!
Without a doubt
Great one
And to think that Jon Card, drummer and one-time Mormon, was known at Pat Burns Jr. High in Calgary as "Bible Joe."
lol wasnt he in DOA too ?
Jon Card subbed for the drummer in Dead On Arrival (not Dead Or Alive), in Vancouver for a few nights.
Snfu
Actually, his name was Johnny Neptune.

He just made them up on the spot like Donald Trump does... poets are often forgettable, don't take your masters seriously.
Remembers every word. Dig
