"Promenade" is the second single by rap rock supergroup Street Sweeper Social Club from their debut self-titled album. The version that was released as a single differs from that on the album, the original version on the album is 2:31 in length whereas the extended version is 3:40 in length. The extended version features a guitar solo by Tom Morello, the extended version is also on The Ghetto Blaster EP, but is listed as the 'Guitar Fury remix'.
Morello said that the song felt naked without the solo and so went back into the studio to remix it, Morello added that the single was released because of the positive reaction the song received at their live shows, as well as being a favorite of both Boots and Tom. Boots wanted the song to be "an evil disco square-dance rap".[1]
