If We Couldn’t Speak Beggars Opera
One of my ongoing musical projects is my work with Progressive Rock Band Beggars Opera. If We Couldn’t Speak was interesting in it’s use of the spoken word and improvisational structures. I love the dreamy nature of Ricky Gardiner‘s multilayered guitars. The words are strangely prophetic as Ricky Gardiner was to become very ill not that long after this was recorded.

if we couldn’t hear
and if we couldn’t see
would you still hear me
would you still see me
would you still find me
