Spoon Offers Up A Live Version of "Beast And Dragon" For The Holidays

Okay, well, maybe it's not for the holidays: the band has been offering up a free track every month for well over a year now. But still, it's nice to see that their generosity isn't letting up any time soon. This month's freebie is a live version of "The Beast And The Dragon Adored", from 2005's Gimme Fiction. It's nice to hear that guitar freak-out at the end burn just a little bit more, and if we're not mistaken, isn't that chord at the end the lead-in to "Me And The Bean"?

Nice cut. I heard a nice live version of this with M. Ward handling the evil guitar riff a ways back - maybe Austin City Limits? You have a copy of that?

(And yeah, definitely Me & the Bean.)
