about

Great song written by Nick, gentle and atmospheric. It was one of his most popular compositions over the 28 year period he was in the group. We recorded it for this album, obviously, but it popped up throughout later years in various guises and I never tired of it. "Loves the Rising Sun", "Avalon" and "Bonnie Maid of Fife" from Nick in the first two albums certainly let us know we had an accomplished song-writer in the band.
