Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
By 1968/9, The Lazarus Ladders were beginning to move away from their earlier Psychedelic sound. As a result, this song is much more of a straight ahead Rock song. However, the lyrics still contain echoes of psychedelia. Taken from their 2nd. album, 'Insert Coin To Continue'.
Lyrics
Mountain Tops (David A Briggs) There are times when ... time is standing still. There are times when ... emptiness can fill. The space between us ... spinning like a top. There are times when ... we'd like the world to stop. Free your body ... let your thoughts go free. close your eyes now ... then you'll really see. Let the wind blow softly through your mind. there's a place there ... search and you will find. Peace of mind is waiting for you there. peace of mind I'd like us all to share. Free your body ... let your thoughts go free. ... guitar solo ... Free your body ... let your thoughts go free. Let the wind blow softly through your mind. there's a place there ... search and you will find. the space between us spinning like a top time and space .. the ticking of the clock. Free your body ... let your thoughts spin free. close your eyes now ... and tell me what you see. Free your body ... let your thoughts go free. close your eyes now ... and tell me what you see.

Oh yes...you've nailed it here! Vocals are superb - brilliant job on the harmonies too! Excellent guitar, bass & organ, love the drums too. The perfect rock/pop song - could imagine this being a huge radio hit

Oh my. We may have to cover this one we may we might and could do yet that's if it's all the same to you that is. Majormania. Right. Kicks me right in the arse and I'm off to the studio. Not to do this one... actually was hearing a song in another one of these... the third one, I think... maybe I'll sort out a vocal version of that, and then you can cover it if you like, may as well, since it'd half be yours. Well yeah, if I do it, it'd be a an "Oldman & Snagg" thing. We shall see.
