I am in the night
I am every part of it
The consumption of its beast 
The deck that it deals
The veins that bleed
The caress of its serpent

I am the night
As it writhes and undulates toward dawn
It moans and cries a symphony of anger
I am its agony as it struggles against the light
And dies with the strike of the Sun God.

Dave's Comments:

This disc includes studio versions of much of the material that the band toured for their first few years. As energetic as these studio tracks are, the four live tracks at the end of the disc show the Rollins Band at full throttle, including MOVE RIGHT IN, a tune that Rollins borrowed from Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground. This song appears often as a marathon jam session, here incorporating some of Iron Butterfly's In-a-Gadda-Da-Vita.
