Times Move So Fast

This is a piece recorded back in the late 80s. My pal, Jean Coyne, had just acquired a new Roland D-50 keyboard synth. It was the first digital synth any of us had tried. And for a while, it stayed with me at my house. :-) So one day I started messing around and pretty soon I was laying down some tracks. My buddy Jake came by and liked what I was doing so he went off in the other room, wrote out lyrics and came back and recorded them. I added a flanged/distorted guitar solo and voila! we were done.

What you hear is a Roland drum machine, me on the D-50 multitracked a few times, including the bass line, Jako on vocals and me on guitar. Very different from most of the stuff we were doing at that time…
