I don't remember much music in Hitch-hiker.  One of the reasons I like it 
so much.  I like live music after the first half of a bottle of wine.  I 
tend to protest stuff that hits the authority red button.  So Molly doing 
Joan Baez or Gabby doing Dillon might be my thing.  I could do Janice 
Joplin on piano, though someone else would have to sing.
