Simple Minds Book Of Brilliant Things intro jam.

using my Yamaha Modx 6 I tweaked the CP70 piano and added Strings to this stunning intro by MichaelMacneil of the classic live version of Book Of Brilliant Things from the 85/86 tour by Simple Minds,I sent the combined sounds through my Strymon Nightsky to add some reverberation,if you like my video please check Martyrs In Disguise on UA-cam,Spotify and other digital formats were we write songs and do cover versions of classic tracks.Thanks for watching

Keep watching this Colin and your bowl drone rendition and I have to admit both bring tears to my eyes and that my friend is special. Sarah last week in Glasgow did this number proud although you could have solo'd with her on the ivories to make it that bit more wow, you've got this tune bang on fella.

[@Colinsdroneadventures1968]

Well that is a great compliment mate..Thank you very much!!🎹🎶👍

That summers day was biblical … forever on the Waterfront 🙏
