Larry was stuck in the Cincinnati airport the day that the Iraq
War was in full swing. He saw Wolf Blitzer on CNN droning
on and on, and he read a banner under Wolf that read, "It's 3:02
in Bagdad. The bombing is relentless. Ground forces
are 60 miles away." Bagdad Blues was born. Larry and
Leslie performed the song (words and music by Larry) as part of
a benefit performance for Lisa Raven with their band Hudson
Street at the Brick Church in 2005.
