This post reminded me of something Mickey told me a long, long time ago. When I asked him what motivated him to write the "Trilogy", he responded that he'd put the song together the way he had so that he could hear "Dixie" played on the radio "just one more time". He said he loved that song (Dixie), but that it didn't get air play because of the stigma attached to it. But placing "Dixie" in a song with the other two made it viable again, hearable again, recordable again, playable again. And how!
