"Live" is a 1967 song The Merry-Go-Round. Written by Emitt Rhodes, this was the band biggest hit, from their
only album called "The Merry-Go-Round". It was a regional hit and climbed to #63 on the Billboard hot 100.
This song is prominently featured on "Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965–1968"
on disc 2, and was also covered by The Bangles for their debut album in 1984. Since then it has become a
psychedelic staple in the garage rock community.
