They opened the economy here, but I don't think I feel safe going out more than I absolutely have to... and when I go out, I wear a mask.

Apologies to Peter. Sorry for missing a line. I tried another take but my hands gave out on me.

homage to Peter Gabriel era Genesis (not off-the-record warning) I'll probably give this one another go - on keyboards. It is an unfortunate fact that my hands are hurting more and more quickly - lucky for me piano is not as cruel.

An abuse of Brian Bazeley's Keeping the Peace by Norm Harris and myself.

tuning: standard lyrics: i woke up this morning, and wanted to go back up for breath. intoxicated epiphanies, late nights, then lonely bed. regurgitation of all the day's long hard thoughts. then comforting silence in not having to think…

i should rename this track... there. it became the sound track to a short film i produced called "Ztileeb". a film i'd be happy to share with anyone should they wish to see it. i've often used self recorded ambient sounds in my tracks. this…

This is a re-do of the piano groove track from July 8. I've added a breakdown and a B part and for the most part, I'm pleased.

I was reminded again yesterday of a responsibility to the language, to the culture, to ourselves.

Reg has been reading the papers today and it seems like utter chaos out there since the circus came to town ...... and the world will never be the same again..... Nothing will ever be the same again The circus came to town today…
