All right now, watch this. |
Let me tell you about this song. |
This song was |
originally constructed as a drum solo. |
That’s right. |
Now, after Terry learned |
how to play The Black Page on the drum set, I figured, well, maybe it would be |
good for other instruments. |
So I wrote a melody that went along with the drum |
solo. |
And that turned into The Black Page part 1, the hard version. |
Then I said, well, what about the other people in the world, who might enjoy |
the melody of The Black Page, but couldn’t really approach its statistical |
density in its basic form. |
So, I went to work and constructed a little diddy |
which is now being set up for you at this little disco type vamp. |
This is The Black Page part 2, the easy teenage New York version. |
Get down with your bad selves so to speak to The Black Page part 2. |
Thank you. |
Did anybody dance? |
