 Subject: CRD/TAB Rock and Roll-Runaways
 This is the same song originally done by the Velvet Underground.
 It was done on the Runaways(Joan Jetts' first band) first release
 and it features a real cool riff.  The song is in 4/4 and we used
 to start it by having the drummer play a steady beat on the cow
 bell.  Here is our arrangement:
 Rock and Roll -  Runaways(VU)
