This is the original version of one of the tracks from my new project… rerecordings of some of my early solo recordings. This track features my friend Mark Bergen on electric piano solo.

This is the new version of one of the tracks from my new project… rerecordings of some of my early solo recordings. I have to admit that the mix of acoustic guitar and Moog-like synth at the beginning of this is (perhaps too) evocative of Kansas…
