This got its name because I thought it sounded like it could be a section in a Pelican song. I went to Wikipedia to look up Latin names of pelican species and settled on this one.

This song started off just on bass and was saved in demo form as "bass led", as in led by the bass. When I needed titles for all the album tracks, I ended up taking "led" and making it "LED"--light-emitting diode.

This song was composed just by selecting random chord names in the piano roll in Fruity Loops, and then going from there. The offset piano melody in the beginning was a happy accident (in that I painted it at the wrong offset in the step sequencer…

This was intended to go much longer than it did, and take a darker or heavier twist...but instead it just ended.

Mostly driven by electronics, most of the people who listened to its demo form said it was too repetitive. After I added the guitar overdubs and the break in the middle, those same people liked it much better.

Something I recorded a couple years ago. If I ever do a "Celtic Christmas" CD, it'll probably sound like this...

From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
