this is the piano trio i lead Alt , we did a rough  a demo recording, this is  usually a bit of a swingy ballad,we rearranged it a little added an angry vamp a the end of the piano solo, yeah  , "beautiful love what have you done to me " !


06 Beautiful Love

alt again, we sketched this out briefly then recorded, its fairly organic , and happened in the moment,
its about going to viking heaven, sad at first, then there is a realisation that you can spend eternity feasting ,
riding motorbikes and drinking lager.
thats my plan anyway x 

05 Valhalla

this is a snippet from a much longer improvisation, 
all written on the fly as we played, though this bit sounds composed to my ear.
had a bit of a vision as we played, of someone i loved 
so this is for her 
x

Ending4

captures the excitement of an hc 5 gig 
the lyrics are all about , well , singing your way out of sadness i guess 
"sadness , you have lived in my heart too long , 
its time for you to go, 
i want to sing again........(everyone) la la la la la ...........  "
