      I have had this song as a .mp3 file for a while now and wanted to know any information about it. Does anyone know who sang this and where it appeared? It seems like J plays the drums and guitars for this.

        hi.

        you can find it on Glitterhouse’s wagon 7′ as the b-side. Don Flemming sings.

        J mascis: guitar and vocals.
        murph: right drums
        jay spiegel: left drums
        don flemming: guitar, vocals.
        there’s also a thanks to Donna Biddle for playing bass.

        left drums and right drums. Either that means that murph plays on wagon and spiegel on better than gone. Or it could be they have recorded both murph and spiegel and panned the drums to the right and left in the sound picture.
        sounds fair. :lol:

        by the way, I have a canadian tv interview from 91, where J says that dinosaur had two drummers going on at the same time and two drumssets in their rehearsal room.

          Don and Jay are from Gumball so I guess you call it Dinoball Jr or Gumsaur Jr :P Donna Biddle aka Donna Dresch used to play with the Screaming Trees,played bass for Dino for awhile before Mike Johnson joined,owns the Chainsaw label that Sleater Kinney had their first two albums on 8)
          J problably had two drummers because of the Allman Brothers of course :wink:

            Possibly I got the song title wrong but I swear a woman sings it. Maybe it was Donna Biddle?
