A-11
Composer: Hank Cochran
A-11 was performed by Bob Weir with Ratdog and Kingfish. Performed by the New Riders Of The Purple Sage, with Jerry Garcia, in 1969. The song was probably also performed by Jerry Garcia sitting in with the Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band in June 1969.

Hank Cochran has said in interviews that he had no particular song in mind when he wrote the lyrics of A-11:

I don't know you from Adam
But if you're gonna play the jukebox
Please don't play A-11
