Began writing this tune about a year ago. Started out a lot rockier, but by the time I’d got to Cape Town, it slowed down considerably. Its first public debut was performed along with Benguela guitarist, Alex Bozas, who encouraged me to slow it down even more. This version is about as ponderous as it’ll get and by far the most gritty to perform.

It’s going to be fun… there’s more scope for “twist” in this and other newer pieces…
