** Mike Roe says the following about Gene's "Dunce Cap" in the liner notes to the ''Little Red Riding Hood'' reissue:
--->I would listen to the rough mixes of this tune on the airplane ride back home after the sessions and I would just bawl my eyes out and I didn't know why. I got up the courage to tell the other guys, and they each had similar reactions. It was in the music. It was in the lyric. It was in Gene's voice. I think, in some unspoken way, we all knew the song was about Gene, and we all sensed that something was going to happen to him.
