Sid had this to say about his track Right ‘Round The Bend

“I wrote this song in the optimistic and spiritual style of the great Pete Seeger, America’s greatest living folksinger and also our most famous left-winger. In my dreams I hear marching people in peaceful protest singing it…
But then again I have some crazy dreams.”
