Ween – Freedom of ’76
From the counter

Ween cut it first, but the credit has a second name next to theirs, and Ed Wilson is it. Play the Shaved Dog mix after the regular one and listen for what a second pass does to a song they built with someone else.

Ween put "Freedom of '76" on record first and shared the writing with Ed Wilson. Alik Gongola picked it up decades later, so spin both and hear what made it through the trip.
