Can anyone tell me what the track is in the movie where they are riding away and the guy comes along in a truck and shoots Dennis Hopper from his bike?

Roger McGuinn - Ballad Of Easy Rider


This is the playout titles track. There is no music during the scene you descibe.

it was a great movie of it's time. the music was pure white hot Rock and Roll of the late 60s. Loved Steppenwolf, Hendrix, The Who, etc.
