Journeys Without Destinations

Raymond Little

This song started with the perfect fifth lick at the beginning of the song, which I came up with while suffering writer’s block while working on another piece. Once I added the bass and drum parts, the piece began to pretty much write itself.

I’ve been told that I appreciate the journey more than the destination, and that came to mind while working on this. I see the piece as a series of journeys, some longer than others. In talking with a friend, I brought up the idea that all the journeys we take don’t truly have destinations, as once we arrive we take a new journey. Hence the title.
