There's a Place
Original first version written sometime between 1984 and 1987 .
I dug it out from a cassette. I don't remember what inspired it? But the first chords are maybe similar to bands like Santana or America...or it could have been something else... I really don't remember? It's A to D-ish with a Latin feel
I wanted to revisit it.
I dug around and found the chords. They were actually much more complicated then I remembered.
Once I got the chords, it actually took me a very long time to work out the melody and instrumental part.I tried different combinations of sounds. Originally I wasn't going to use a lead guitar for the melody but the synth sounds were not cutting through, that's why you hear a mixture of sounds playing the melody. In the end, I was happy with the result.
