“Ambulancer” is the latest cut off Lee Ranaldo‘s new solo album, Last Night on Earth, and comes from a place close to his heart:

“When this song started out, on acoustic guitar, the riff that I began with reminded me of Neil Young’s ‘Ambulance Blues’ in some way – which is a song I love dearly,” Ranaldo tells Rolling Stone. “It’s turned out nothing like that but that initial spark carried over into the finished lyrics.”

Lee Ranaldo and the Dust’s Last Night on Earth is out October 8, 2013 on Matador Records.
