I have always liked this recording. We did this one analog on a Teac eight-track machine in the summer of 1994. I also have fond memories of recording the song.
Mary and I visited China, Hong Kong, and Bangkok in 1994. While sitting in our room on the 20th floor of a hotel in Bangkok one night, I looked at the sunset over the river and for some reason was put in mind of a James Bond film and soundtrack as typified by the late, great John Barry. That is how the title and theme for the music came about. Toward the end of the piece, there is a solo done on a nylon string guitar.
Enjoy the rest of summer.
Be kind.
Love,
Reyn
