Background

“This was recorded in 1996 during an all-too-brief weekend visit to Portsmouth by Frank, who was on his travels performing in Europe. I had a good part of the tune already available when Frank arrived, as it was a project I was working on. Together we tweaked the arrangement to work with some lyrics Frank had with him. He was able to add banjo to the backing just before it was time to go. I completed the song with midi-sax and vocal later.”
