Harris Filmed Live in Australia. Folk Rock.

I recorded this gig with a little help from my friends. I was too rusty on the piano and lead guitar to wait another month. So I cast them aside and pressed on. It was now or never time baby.

13 songs live. Filmed by Paul Strahan and recorded by the drummer Fallon Williams. I had agreements and a limited budget. It all came together on April 2004 at the Yarra Valley Arts Center, in beautiful Warburton Victoria.
I met each musician individually.
Fallon. A known drummer with several major artists and gigs under his belt. including sharing a room with John Entwistle on tour.

Michael was on bass. Greek heritage and a surname that unsurprisingly escapes me now. Too many letters.Nice bloke flawless

Mark on guitar. Spent a lot of time backing Johnny Young. Of talent time fame.And just so happened to have enough time to fit me in.

Richard Eagle a part American Indian who makes an all too short cameo (Part Two) on The Summer side of town. Just wishing he had more time to unload a few more Jethro Tull licks with his flute in hand.

Another Marty on Sax Clarinet and keyboard. Lovely sounds as you will see.

A regrettable hour with each, passing on song
charts and so little time for questions or practice. We got together for one rehearsal. It wasn't enough. Looking back you always know the kind of things you should have done like not wearing granddad's clothes. 50 friends turned up that evening and sat back in that old theater and were all very supportive for which I truly thank you all so much.

I released 50 DVDs and CD,s.A label sat back and watched it and turned it down. All the same not such a bad effort. It is what it is. It was now or never because 20 years later, I haven't done another one.
Hope you like it. There's 3 parts. This is part 2. 4 songs. Time flys
