Swept Away Swept Away
A gentle ballad drawing its roots from progressive rock and bossa-nova! This song I feel needs to be played several times to appreciate its strength. Vocals courtesy of Mike Lockett
All That's Left To Say All That's Left To Say
Straight down the line rock ballad in the vein of 'Missing You' by John Waite and latter era Genesis. It features a killer guitar solo courtesy of Dave Lockett whose playing would have been good enough to grace any Genesis album post Steve Hackett
Lottery of Life Lottery of Life
Cheeky 1960's bossa/bacharach influenced ballad. nice james bond styled keyboard solo from Mike Lockett. Vocals by Mike Lockett
Better Than Best Better Than Best
A short, sharp jangly slice of prog rock condensed into under four minutes
