An 11+ minute journey of 'a silent night', in 3 sections/movements: soundscape, jazz piano, rock guitar. The first part is loosely inspired by The Polar Express...second part is R&B/jazz piano loosely inspired by Joe Sample...and the final guitar section is a "guitar orchestra" that is a nod to Brian May and Steve Hackett.

Re-recorded in 2021. This song was written towards the end of the River To The Sea period. Some of the original tracks from the early 2000's were kept, and roughly 70% of the other tracks were newly recorded. At the time, the vocal lyric & melody was not quite finished, so it was decided to hold it for the next album (which never came to fruition). Jeff wrote the instrumental bed, and Buzz contributed the Pat Methney-ish melody in the bridge. The musical concept was a romantic Spanish flavor, that loosely combined the influences of Sting, Pat Metheny Group, Miles Davis, Al Di Meola, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Arturo Sandoval.

Produced & performed by Jeff.

Sort of a prog-rock, modern day Pink Floyd's "Animals". This is a new re-recording, remix, remaster in 2020. Some of the original tracks were kept, some tracks are completely new.

Sort of a prog-rock, modern day Pink Floyd's "Animals". This is a new re-recording, remix, remaster in 2020. Some of the original tracks were kept, some tracks are completely new. The previous version was a glorified band demo. Buzz, more or less, had a finished lyric, and there is a demo vocal floating around from the late '90's, but, we never quite got around to properly recording this song...and it didn't fit stylistically on River To The Sea, so it was "put on the shelf for later". This 2020 recording is a more final, polished version.
