Long Ryders’ bassist / archivist Tom Stevens assembled live Long Ryders footage plus additional stock of ex-Byrd Gene Clark for the gorgeous “Ivory Tower," written by original Long Ryders' bassist Barry Shank. Clark is on backing vocals of the studio version, and would occasionally offer a live reprise with the band to the delight of their audience.
First appearing on Native Sons in 1984, it re-appears as Track #7 on Disc 1 of Final Wild Songs.
Final Wild Songs - THE definitive Long Ryders’ collection - is a career-spanning four-CD box set released January 22nd, 2016 on Cherry Red Records.
Over two years in the making Final Wild Songs features the original albums as well as demos, singles, and rare live recordings from The Long Ryders. Re-mastered by Andy Pearce, the 76 track box set contains song-by-song comments by five Long Ryders, many rare photos and memorabilia, a fold-out poster, and an introduction by longtime friend and supporter David Fricke of Rolling Stone.
