    "comment": "Bassist/multi-instrumentalist Brian Ritchie played the xylophone on this song, which features two xylophone solos.\n--\nDuring the song’s final verse, Gordon recites a verse from the classic Muddy Waters song ‘I Just Want To Make Love To You’ nearly verbatim. Waters sings, “I can tell by the way you switch and walk / I can tell by the way that you baby talk / I can tell by the way that you treat your man / I could love you, baby, it’s a crying shame”, four lines that Gano poaches word for word on ‘Gone Daddy Gone’.\n--\nThat Muddy Waters song was written by Willie Dixon, who received co-writing credit for the Violent Femmes' tune.",
