I’ve been taking some solace in listening to Martin’s music. Martin left behind six or eight albums worth of songs in various stages of completion. In fact, we were were starting to work on album together, with me producing some of his newer original songs, and he’d been sending me material.
A couple of weeks ago I found on my hard drive a set of eighteen songs he wrote way back in the 80’s when he was first learning guitar. He recorded them on a little 4-track cassette recorder in the early 90’s with Kim playing drums and him doing everything else. I’d totally forgotten about alot of those songs. Now I’m learning them on guitar. I even bought a new guitar because I never had a good rock’n’roll electric guitar before.
