Another teenage song about a long-lost political celebrity: Spiro Agnew, Vice President of the United States under President Richard Nixon.

He speaks to you directly in the first few seconds.

This is an old piece I recreate again whenever I move into a new technological era. This time, I have BIAB. Someday I want to do this one from scratch in BIAB, but for now, I just added a truly tasty drum track: "PraiseWorshipPowerPush^1-a:Quarter Kick , b:Pushed Snare, Hihat".

Cool intro.

Loved the backtrack. Well produced. Sounds great on the monitors. Well done...

Thanks, Scott. Now I need to get myself some good speakers...

You were too kind to point out that the pipes at the end sounded kind of broken; I just swapped in a version that fixes that by keeping the keyboards in longer. I don't know what I was thinking last night. =8^)

Hmm,
I was expecting some lyrics so, I'm not sure how this ties to Spiro A.

It's an interesting piece though.

Oh, sorry, I'm so used to being instrumental I forget! I think I tried to write lyrics here once but didn't get past "Spiro, Spiro, ooh, ooh, ah, ah, ah".

Thanks for listening.
