Description
This tune starts at Glastonbury and ends up at Woodstock. Think Moody Blues meets Santana or something like that. The reading of William Blake's poem 'London' comes from http://www.youtube.com/user/SpokenVerse - a great source of readings by a fellow who goes by the pseudonym Tom O'Bedlam. I recorded most of this during the Olympics.
Opening section uses orchestral drum loops - a cut up and tweaked Mandolin loop - some wind and rain effects including a church bell found at freesound.org - and my keyboard and bass playing.
Part two is my guitar, bass, keys and vocals with drum loops.
Thanks to Smokey for hosting the festival - and to all who have been submitting and or listening.

Fascinating work! Blake's poem is powerful. The guitar sounds are superb. The "Someday" vocal (is it from "I'll follow the sun" - a stark contrast to the Blake work?) gets inside my head because of its tone. Excellent arrangement. Impressive music, Kevin!
