Yep, it's another one.

"Overture (Behold The Sea)"

Very Who (Tommy era) inspired.

There's also a fake chorus that was hella hard to create, guitar solos, keyboard solos (Moog and Arp), and a nifty piccolo solo to wrap it all up.

Some compared this to late 70s Zappa. Zappaesque Who. I'll take that.

The four songs up on the myspace page are all songs from a "rock opera" for a book I'm putting out next year. I wrote the book, then we farmed out chapters to various musicians, who adapted the narrative into song. It's about done. Seventeen chapters (sixteen + epilogue), seventeen songs.
