07 Sunday Rain

A friend of mine asked me to produce a "new age" version of the Wedding Song for her friend's upcoming wedding. Her dad runs a studio, so I came over without an arrangement and improvised parts and we layered them. I was in and out of the studio in half an hour. Haven't heard this in many months. Heard it today and thought "this is soothing.....not too bad for an improvised arrangement (while you wait)".
