"72" Length: 0:06

All it says is "The youth of America on LSD!", a verse from the musical HAIR and it sounds like it's coming from an AM transistor radio.

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):

"Tribute to Pink Floyd"

The Orb Live 93 has for its cover art a parody of the Pink Floyd "Animals" album. That album has a pink pig floating and coasting in a dark sky over a factory. The Orb's cover art features a plush sheep hovering near a refinery or some sort of industrial complex. A silvery sun adorns and shines in the lemon-lime sky. The upper right corner says "orb live 93". The picture on the rear cover shows the plush sheep from the rear, floating away from the complex. On the upper left corner of the picture are the words in reverse. It now reads as "bro evil 39".
