Lighter Side of Serious Bands:
"Benny the Bouncer"
An obvious "B-side" to Jeremy Bender, this song functions as the calm before the storm (that is Karn Evil 9), but still turns into a great cut thanks to the up-right piano playing in one of the great English Music Hall performances this side of the last world war.
