Bands, commitments, and brilliant haircuts 

Thurston Moore and Romantic Fantasy

Driving and dreaming of being a band 

Or a solo career on the Canyon Grand

  

The Cure climbed out over Niagara Falls.

The Banshees below in yellow Sou’westers 

Happy memories for the Xmas cards 

Covered in spray when both stopped to Play

 

‘One could have it all!’ says Budgie, solo in San Tropez

Alone but not lonely, beneath a Mediterranean moon 

Reaching out for a connection and kindred spirits 

With an ET stare into the cosmos of music 

 

Mary trained as a Classical harpist 

Learning to improvise in Thurston Moore's band 

Dismissing the voice that says, ‘No that’s wrong!’

Being Vulnerable – is that what they demand?

 

Everything recreated as recorded 

Mary's Goodbye to Hotel Arkarda

If Nothing will ever be the same again 

How do you know when to end each piece?

 

Lol synthesised on Arrivederci. 

Improvisations on New Year's Eve

Mary is a sensitive sentimental person 

Full of appreciation of people in their power 

We thank you Mary for bringing your magic to our album.

And then Viola barks – woof!
