My Music - The Gab - Half Moon Bay

Hi There!
A special treat today: we’ve been through the archives and found some tracks from a project I worked on a few years ago - a band called The Gab.
Here’s a sample of the track called Half Moon bay. The full track runs for 7 minutes.

Named after the area Ralph was living in Sydney, this track was a great way of opening the album. The intent was clear.
On the full track, the piece starts with a circular breathing improvisation by Ralph. We listen from where I come in. Then Malcolm. Just a bunch of fills and a groove to get us going…then the melody.
In the full track it turns into a blues piece which really moves…I mean REALLY moves!
A fine way to introduce the three of us, I think anyway.
Enjoy!
