"Two Step" comes from Crash, Dave Matthews Band's 1996 album, and it went out to radio as a promotional single. Matthews wrote it and sings it over his own acoustic guitar while the band piles on around him: Boyd Tinsley's violin sawing and soaring, LeRoi Moore switching between saxophones, flute and whistle, Stefan Lessard on bass and piano, and guest Tim Reynolds adding acoustic and electric guitar. Steve Lillywhite produced, with Tom Lord-Alge mixing.
It's a restless, circling groove that keeps winding tighter, and it has had a long life onstage, turning up on a string of live albums from Live at Red Rocks 8.15.95 to The Best of What's Around Vol. 1 and The Central Park Concert.
