I used to know this and can't recall for the life of me.

Were they named after the blues reissue label as well? (No kidding, I always wondered that.)

Either that or the river in Mississippi.

HA... how embarrassing, I just realized it's not "Don't Go"!

The song is "Situation"... In particular the jump made in the last part of the chorus(?): "Don't make a sound just move out".

fyi; song is "situation" not "don't go"

The answer to Chuck's question is yes. Don't know the answer to Steve's question.

It's not in blues form, is it?

To me, it sounds most of all like a rewrite of "Nodisco".
