Remember the Grass Roots-what fine vocals you have  --- well  done !!!

Zekley & Bottler passed me by, as did Grass Roots, shameful I know but this such a beautiful song and you get right to the heart of it!

Love your vocal delivery. Kind of country, a bit sheeny pop and all passion!

So cool how you reinvented this song to fit you perfectly Durge.

Written by Gary Zekley & Mitchell Bottler and recorded famously by one of my favorite bands of the 60s/70s (The Grass Roots), "Wait A Million Years” has lingered in my teenage memory and finally gets a quick treatment here. Once again I did a first pass test on my iPhone and grew attached to its raw simplicity despite the rough recording. I subsequently added a vocal harmony and some harmonica accents. Then my Daniels & Durgy partner, Nat Daniels, got her hands on it to lend a hand with some bass, percussion and other editing improvements so that I might offer it here without too much embarrassment! I'm pleased with the results but welcome any comments on this considerable twist on the original Grass Roots version. My great thanks to Nat for her invaluable assistance on this solo track.
