The songbook of a journey to the southwest of the U.S.A., recorded in the CBS Studios in London, produced functionally and efficiently, without gimmicks, by the former Genesis and Camel producer David Hitchcock. A compendium of basic rock music in the classic Improved style, at times drenched in mellotron, at times tequila flavoured, and enhanced with the singular colours of slide and pedal steel guitar.

Bound For Spain
You came and you went away
And gave it all for free
Yes, you came and you wouldn´t stay
But gave it all for free
I´m stuck inside this heart of pain
You´re far away you´re bound for Spain
When you´re happy or when you´re down
Come, drop me a line
Angel, you may smile or frown
Come, drop me a line
