Side A- Electric version

Side B- Unplugged live(Biarritz)

In October 2019, in Nashville, we finished a harrowing, but Dantesque American tour of 32 dates in 39 days. There, Vance Powell, our friend and producer, offered to record 3 tracks live on tape in 1 day: a cover of our "F the Bass player" (not yet released), our "Two Days" (not yet released) and a cover of an American artist. At the start of the tour, given that we always start in Nashville where our US material is stored, Vance offered us 2 choices: Willy Nelson, Neil Young etc... Obviously, we had to feel close to the earthy, ecological, blues-folk themes that are also ours. We chose Neil Young's "Rocking the free world", except that Vance said "No, too easy for you guys"...and suggested "Hey Hey My My", "My MY HEY HEY", doing a slightly crazy version of it. We locked ourselves away for 2 days in our friend Bill Elder's basement, where we're staying in Nashville, to come up with this version recorded in 1 take, on tape, vocals included in the room.

Neil Young via his management congratulated us, which completely .... turned us around. Neil being the reference artist in everything at TIC...
