I started and abandoned this track consistently during 2024, never finished it, never been sure about it but there's something I do like. The modulations are fun and clever, I think, smooth and yet surprising and effective. I recorded several guitar takes over the year (each time I had a guitar recording session I gave this a fresh tray). I wanted this to be a "guitar" showcase, but eventually made it a full keyboards+bass+guitar+drums track.
The final guitar is an edit from 3 takes I did on a 6 month period, the one with volume pedal is nice.
So the title and the melodic motif (nicked from "Summer of '42") have been on my "to do" list for a couple of years, the actual performance comes from 2024.
I took that photo in Costa Rica on February 2020.
