Song Details[edit | edit source]

Composition and Recording[edit | edit source]

"I'll Miss You" was written by Gene Ween,[2] who also sings the lead vocals. Ed Wilson plays bass and lap steel guitar on the song.[3] Wilson described the recording of this song as "one of the most wonderful days of my life. Ween and I were really tight back then."[4]

Live Performances[edit | edit source]

Ween played "I'll Miss You" live a small number of times in the years following its release (beginning with an informal debut with the Jimmy Wilson Group), but had stopped playing it by 2003.[5] Following that, Gene Ween began playing the song at solo shows, and did so fairly often through the late 2000s, both solo acoustic and with the Gene Ween Band.[6] Following Ween's hiatus and reunion, they began playing the song again on an occasional basis.[7]
