American Lesion American Lesion is a solo album by Greg Graffin, the lead singer of the punk band Bad Religion. Like the album "Into the Unknown", this album is a massive departure for Graffin, whose songs generally revolve around loud guitars and harmonies. "American Lesion" for the most part features Graffin's voice alone, and each song features acoustic guitar or piano rather than electric guitars. The song "Cease" (track 6 on this album) is a slow piano ballad that is also featured on Bad Religion's album "The Gray Race" as a fast-paced punk rock song. The album was re-released by Epitaph Records on September 15, 2008.

Homecoming (Gateway album) Homecoming is an album by Gateway, a trio composed of John Abercrombie, Dave Holland and Jack DeJohnette. It was recorded in 1994 and released on the ECM label in 1995 and is the trio's first album since "Gateway 2" in 1978. The Allmusic review by Greg Turner states "The Gateway Trio is a cooperative in the greatest sense of the word... Even though this only the third Gateway recording and the group's first in 17 years, each group member collaborates frequently with the others. As a result there is always a great sense of interplay between Abercrombie's sometimes-mellow-sometimes-distorted guitar, Holland's huge toned bass, and DeJohnette's dancing drums... This is a fine return to recording for a great group".

Blind Willie McTell (song) "Blind Willie McTell" is a song by Bob Dylan, titled after the blues singer Blind Willie McTell.

Each verse ends with the same refrain: "Nobody can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell".
