We lost him just over a year ago.

On youtube there's a short video clip of guitarist Shawn Lane (R.I.P) executing an extremely difficult chord voicing that requires extensive finger stretching, which Shawn calls "the hardest chord in the world." I altered the chord a little bit…
The first time we played this tune, the drummer and I played it, spontaneously, almost exactly as this recording documents. But we'd never heard it before, had no chart, Kelly was just playing it on the bass and singing a bit, and our parts just…

So I took a piano song I was working on, recorded it to cassette, dragged mic…

One after the other, outstanding...
Hauntingly beautiful!

Exciting Track!
apocalyptic- love it!
