Old Dog In Snow

This is the first piece I actually wrote in Band-in-a-Box by filling in a blank chord sheet and going from there. I mean it to be sweeeeet ear candy. I wish I could ask Ringo to play drums.

Gentle Listener is invited to imagine an old dog trotting along on a packed snow trail, each instrumental solo a sniffable message at the base of a tree. No dogs were harmed in the creation of this music, though Mollie Poblano did leave the room several times when I played it too loud.

Come for the doggy imagery, stay for the kickass 1972 synthesizer solo! It's got PORTAMENTO.
