Shakedown Street was the nickname the band and crew gave to their studio. They called it shakedown street because the studio was located in a kind of seedy neighborhood. The studio was directly across from run down motel. I like this song because its a mellow song. Unlike most of the music played today this song doesn't need someone screaming in your ear. It's a great song.
