What a fine treasure to rediscover !
It is as lovely and poignant now as it was when
I first heard it in 1971. The album was a well worn companion ...
T y for gifting us . I too had searched for this forgotten tune after a line haunted me. Peace and contentment at last !

What a great song. In Spain appeared in a CBS-promotion double album together with The Spirit, The Flock, Johnny Winter, The Byrds, Chicago, Santana and many more by 1970. There is a good version in Roguer McGuinn first solo album.

Love Toms version of this song. Listened to it since the 70's. Tom is so very underated, such a shame.

Sounds Like Tom Scott to me . I know his work from Geo Harrison-what do you think?

@skippiperke20000 I can't tell you why it is upside down, but I can tell you where it is. It is in France, in the Charenet-Meritime in the town called Saintes. You will find it by the side of a roundabout on the rue Aristide Briand. Purely for decoration, it is going nowhere.

The sax is great with this. Any information about the place/date of the performance and who the musicians are would be appreciated.
