a very nice musical moment...

 Arlo Guthrie and his family band, along with Pete Seger...

Arlo is telling the story of a concert in Europe as the Cold War was ending...

Somehow, this involves Elvis...

Red Molly

 This is Red Molly, with a great Americana sound.

The song is "1952 Vincent Black Lightening."  The main characters are Red Molly, James, and a motorcycle.  It includes a line about 'red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme.'  

Is the ending happy or sad?  Not sure...
