This track was also taken from an old reel tape recorded in the 1970's. As I recall, this piece was a bit of a miracle. It seemed to arise spontaneously from the four of us messing around together, and we could never quite reproduce what happened, especially in the short bridge section, where the guitar and piano hit some nice intersecting harmonies, purely by chance. I think we were probably all relieved to be playing in 4/4 time, for a change.
