Name: A Devil In The Straw (Re-jig) by will riding
Duration: 3 min
Description: Slightly rejigged version of an old-ish tune celebrating the heatwave of 1976 and the whirlwinds in the cornfields around the village of Haskayne that, for an afternoon, blew freshly cut corn everywhere. Awesome sight that I'll never forget.

Another great track here. Take care my friend

Legacy track. Took me a while to find this one, I was looking specifically for it to give it some modern treatment.

I also tried to transcribe the lyrics, but I couldn't figure all of them out, so for now I will not post the lyrics. Maybe later.

This isn’t an attack
Hold your assumptions 
Scale it back
I'm on a mission to gather facts
Things don’t add up in this mismatch

Have to solve it 
Hunt it down
These walls are liquid
No solid ground 
There’s no rest until I click into place
Close the distance
Close the space

Evidence that indicates there’s something off
The relevance seems iffy I’m feeling lost
Just try and understand and connect the dots

Connect the dots 
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots

I’m drowning in the absence of words that glue
Floating in your actions that leave no clue
The misunderstandings have me chewed in knots 

Connect the dots 
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots

Just need to clarify 
Get a picture of your mind's eye
How could you just let it go
Throwing shadows that I don’t know

Things aren’t crystal nowhere near
Make the curtain disappear
Lift the vail of uncertainty 
With some detailed clarity 

Evidence that indicates there’s something off
The relevance seems iffy I’m feeling lost
Just try and understand and connect the dots

Connect the dots 
Connect the dots
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots

I’m drowning in the absence of words that glue
Floating in your actions that leave no clue
The misunderstandings have me chewed in knots 

Connect the dots
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots
Connect the dots 
Connect the dots
Connect the dots
