This is a piece of music that my brother-in-law, Charles Wright, and I improvised a few years back.  He's a wonderful keyboard player, and we have about 800 recordings, mostly improv, that the 2 of us did.  The jeweller who made the brass parts on my Les Paul was Charles' brother, Craig.

My friend, John Batyka, wrote it for his mum, and he played the 12-string acoustic guitar intro. I played my Les Paul using a violin bow. The Les Paul part comes in slowly at first, and builds further in. I hope you like it.The LP part comes in slowly at first, and builds further in. I hope you like it.

'53 Les Paul (Bowing)

This is another improvisation by Charles Wright (brother-in-law) on keyboard (sounds like an acoustic) and me. It's called "Orphan" and also features the '53 Les Paul played with the bow.

Orphan

Was this a sign? The last recording we did before the robbery was an improvisation we've revisited a few times. I've always used my Strat for it, but this time, I used my Les Paul with the bow. I hear the almost-frantic nature of the end of the solo as a warning. The song is called "Leavin' Tomorrow". The robbery was the next morning.
