This is one of my favourite pieces, and I've known it for many years.

Track written by #thomasfjohnson

"A Steam Train" was a cue written for Theatre Alibi's Production of "Olive and the Dream Train"

This production saw me playing bass clarinet, alto sax, piano, loop pedal and iPad (Garage Band) as the sole musician with 3 actors on stage .We spend 4 months on tour in the South West - in fact, one of the actors Vic Llywelyn coined my nickname Katmuss duringbantz in the ol' tour van... and it's stuck!

Olive & the Dream Train
