"Goin' Home" comes from Where You Been, Dinosaur Jr.'s 1993 album, and it's J Mascis's show from top to bottom: he wrote it, produced it, sang it and played guitar, piano, organ and even chimes on it. Mike Johnson plays bass and adds backing vocals, Murph sits behind the kit, and George Berz shakes a tambourine. It's Dinosaur Jr. with the furniture moved in, keys and chimes stacked around the guitar and Mascis's drowsy drawl in the middle of it all.
