RATHBONE HOTEL
The Back-To-The-Roots Album [Liner Notes]
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.

Sonora
As I rode down to Sonora
The sun was rising high above
There stood a pretty Senorita
She´d been widowed in the night
Buenas tardes, little gringo
You´re as good as anyone
I´ve got a bunch of kids to feed
Stranger, won´t you marry me
Estas muy guapa, Senorita
So I will try to settle down
But I´m not used to it, my darling
One day you might wake up alone |
