A new instrumentation/recording of one of my oldest songs, originally written in my teens decades ago (hence the dated style choice) when I used to make music primarily to rid the "feels" out of my system, as it were.
So obviously this one is quite the personal creation and not about reinventing the wheel, or compositional innovations, or anything like that*. Case in point: It's fundamentally got only three chords throughout(!), nothing above anyone's payload wink - which, incidentally, is why I added a faint touch of "chord shading" via a midi-based Bossa Electric Piano (as well as have BBox come up with a bookend intro/outro for good measure) for this official outing of the song, just to make its inherent simplicity seem a little less ...uh... simplistic! crazy
