Remarks:
|
The orchestral string section on
this track was was arranged and conducted by Eric Robertson and was
recorded on April 14, 1978 at Sounds Interchange studios in Toronto.
Eric also played harpsichord on this track which was recorded later
that same month at his residence using a mobile studio facility.
The flute on this track was performed by the late, great, Moe Koffman
(one of Canada's foremost jazz musicians) who is best known for his
classic instrumental composition entitled, "Swinging Shepherd Blues".
An alternate 16-track master recording of this song had been completed
several years prior to the recording of this version, but remained
unreleased until its recent inclusion on the "Sunset" CD which was
issued by Bullseye Records of Canada in May 2005.
