Story behind the song
The changes just popped out of my fingers one day back in the '80s. The solo came out decades later around 3 AM after some 40 takes and I was half asleep. After I woke up, I decided it worked well enough. I don't know if I could ever play it again, though. :) No amplifiers were involved. My tung-oiled all-alder Carvin DC127 with Super Slinkies and my custom Acacia fretless bass with D'Addario Chromes were plugged directly into my Digitech GNX-3 and recorded therein. The drums are a built-in loop that was manually muted as necessary during the recording of that track. I had been thinking of recording a real 7/4 drum part but that track just grew on me. I bypassed all FX for the bass track to demo its natural timbre with all pots wide open. All four stereo tracks were then uploaded to my GNU/Linux PC via analog playback through my M-Audio Delta 1010 soundcard/breakout box and captured as separate .wav files, which were then mixed into the final results using the free software package Ardour. The only track editing was to trim the count-ins after synchronizing the tracks and panning--I don't like using punch-ins.
Lyrics
N/A. I see the tune as a long journey compressed into a bit more than two minutes, with peaks and valleys, high and low velocity, etc., finally sliding into the destination, a little beat up, perhaps, but there.
