"All God's Critters" is one of Bill's greatest hits; he does it at most
of his concerts (the ones I've heard anyway) and in particular did it
on the recent (I think) live album "Bridges".  I don't know the label,
but I've seen it in several record stores & at concerts.  If you can't
find it, write & I'll get more particulars.

	some sing out loud on the telephone wire,
	some just clap their hands...               ) Olson
