Last summer I made this tape of (almost) every SY song with Lee Ranaldo on lead vocals (Lee and Thurston both sing on "Unwind", which I couldn't fit on). The title of the tape comes from the Goo demo track "Lee #2", which was retitled "The Notorious Rockin' Lee" on the Blow Job bootleg (the demo is instrumental but there's supposedly a live recording out there of a version with Lee singing on it). And "Lee Is Free" is an instrumental but included for obvious reasons as end-of-side filler.
