Time Is Lite
After I recorded Time Is Right I was happy with the song but thought it was a bit of a vanity project. I was unlikely to have a rock band to play behind me; at best I would be performing at folk clubs or open mics.
I decided to re-record the song in a pared back version - in a different key, at a different tempo and with different instrumentation, modified arrangement and laidback feel.
It now feels like quite a different song.more
