In popular culture
An abridged version of the song "Little Sadie" and an instrumental version of the song "Ecstasy" both appear in a trailer for The Last of Us Part II shown at E3 2018.[4] "Ain't No Grave" can also be played on a record player by Ellie in the story, with "Ecstasy" playing afterwards. If the player stays in the room, the entire Side Two of the album will play.
The player (as Ellie) can also play the first few notes of "Ecstasy" on an acoustic guitar in one of the penultimate scenes, leading to the flashback scene previewed in the beginning of the "E3 2018" trailer mentioned above.
