Glen Burg [Canada]

A Farewell [20] (Burg)

"First (and only) recorded version ever, back in my university dorm room in 1997. Itâs all me (including my uncleâs homemade plywood mandolin), although I received help from Nathael Babineau for the piano trackâ he gave me access to the piano room, held the mic as I played, then suggested that the piano fade after the other parts. That last input transformed the track as I see it. Thanks Nat."

Giantique Aspire [19] (Minnear)

Giantique for a Day [10] (Shulman, Shulman, Minnear)

progressive rock.â Copyright © âDavid Kowalski.
