Below is the last track on the album 'Left Behind (Reprise)' which is a solo piano version of the title track.
I recorded this track to be a bookend, with the main theme both opening and the closing the album. I have tried to have themes running throughout the album, but feel free to infer whatever meaning you like to the tracks! I know that music can mean many different things to many different people. However, I will continue to post the songs on here individually with a few comments as to what inspired me to create them.
The tracks are a mixture of old and newish pieces I have composed over the years. I'm not sure I'm ever completely happy with what I have recorded, but there comes a time when you should just release what you have and see what happens. I hope that I will continue to improve in my work. I may well come back to some of these themes and ideas in the future, but I think it's good to release something and say to yourself that it is done, at least for now, so you can move onto other things. I already have a concept for my next instrumental album and a few half done tracks which I will be looking at in the near future. I will also be working on some vocal tracks very soon. I have a large back catalogue of half finished music, lyrics and all sorts to wade through. So there is plenty more to come!
Being a massive Lego fan I used two very old Lego mini-figures for the album art. Additionally I didn't know what else to use. I think the Lego man at the back has something he needs to say to the girl within his letter. The Lego Lady figure is from a set called 'Mailman on Motorcycle' from 1984;
As for the Lego man, I'm not entirely sure which set he came with. However, I now feel compelled to scour the internet to find out which Lego catalogue he might be in!
