A good friend and percussionist Norm Harris contributed percussion to this track – A Cast of Billions - so I ripped out all of the midi percussion and used Norm’s percussion, added a track where I speak Evan’s poem and did some remastering…

Lovely song.
This has a real classic sound. Kind of Small Faces meets Badfinger. The keyboard touches are mighty fine. Sounds like a hit to me. Great song!
