I've always loved this song. I worked out the harmonies by listening to the Beach Boys who, in turn, worked it out by listening to The Four Freshmen. A bit like 'Chinese Whispers', I suppose.. :)

Django's Castle - The Hot Club Of Clowntown

I was thinking about Brian Wilson and how, on seeing him now, there's just the faint afterglow of the great, great musical genius that once burned so very brightly. I wrote this piece of music to express it, 'cos I'm rubbish explaining things with words..! If a picture says a thousand words, then I think a piece of music says infinitely more. It leaves so much to the imagination. I like the ambiguity... :)

Afterglow

Old school vibes featuring Steve Edwards (vocal), Bennet Holland (Rhodes), Phillipe Clegg (Bass), me on everything else...
