Wow, Alisha! what a great song...haven't thought about it for some time...That is from Little Steven. Yes, Miami Steve Van Zandt, who was Bruce Bedsprings guitarist for many years. It's on an album of his called "Voice of America", a hard rockin', beautifully crafted disc that is also a blast of impassioned outrage and hunger for justice. Go get it, it's great! "...and the river open for the righteous..." enjoy, kevin.
