This is a piece which has been particularly influential. I don't care to elaborate at present.
It does have an interesting backstory, mind you. But I don't care to go into all that either. (too early)
Just for your enjoyment, presented as it is.
The artist is Jack Bruce. It's from the Harmony Row album (last song, side two). Pete Brown lyrics. Chris Spedding guitars.
Though the fireflies laugh in the dusk light
It's the Festival of Death
Crowd is all laughter, it's hollow
Sadly...
They may kill death tonight
But they still live beneath the volcano
Won't be so many more days
Isn't much time and
It's gathering darkness, my friend.

It's been a while, almost two months. Ca va?
True. I've been quite busy, though granted not as consistently productive.
A particularly interesting and enjoyable - yet clever composition complemented by rich harmonies
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Some 30 years later, Jack Bruce would make an album, some new songs, some old songs, recorded with a latin rhythm section that would go to No. 4 in the UK jazz charts.
I haven't listened to the whole thing, but I've heard a few cuts from it. I find it interesting; more accessible than Bruce's previous jazz efforts.
