Coming Back Again - revisiting the studio sessions
A selection of tracks from all the studio sessions from 1980 to 2003.
As I seem to keep coming back to my music on a regular basis to try something the title track Coming Back Again seemed appropriate for a 'best of' type of selection. 
Featuring different versions of songs recorded in various sessions spanning 24 years, it was initially due to be released in 2003 but is now due for release on Replicated * CD in November 2020.
Product expected in late November 2020
This album is AVAILABLE TO ORDER ON REPLICATED CD * [AUD$24.50 inc postage within Australia]
The music and musicians skills have a good rock-jazz vibe and also a 80's-90's feel which is good to listen. I absolutely adore the wind instruments, and I'm really amazed at the beautiful melodies throughout by their diversity and expertise. I love "Southern Rain", your diction, sound and voice is at its best.

The story behind the song:-
Coming Back Again
One of the oldest songs on my 'list', this song goes way back to 1976 and a job working in the lead smelters of Port Pirie, South Australia. My mate Karl was telling me about the 'things' he reckoned he could 'see' in the flames of the furnace which prompted the line - "I see soft figures in the flames", and no, we were NOT on drugs, but it grew from there. It was written as a soft ballad for a girl I was keen to see again.
However one winters night about 5 years later some friends and I were stranded in the very cold town of Putty on the Colo Heights, north-west of Sydney, at about 1 am in the morning because of a car breakdown. The guitar was brought out to try and liven up the cold, dead night and this song was treated with a bit of a frosty 'attitude'. Another verse was added, impromptu, about my recent stay in the city, and it has been played like that ever since. - LAS
