Edwin Milam - synth cello
Monkey Bidness Music
The Dream I Had
- J. F. Nichols
1989, 2013 Thurnic Music Co.
Way back in another life, John wrote this song with very different lyrics and waited for the chance for Bidnessmen to record it. That chance never came, so when he brought it out for the Dirty Quarters to record, they rejected it as written and told John to give it a new lyric ... So, John changed the whole meaning of the song and kept just four or five lines of the verses, without changing the choruses or the title, and we have the new and improved, "The Dream I Had."
The recording features Jere's multiple lead guitars and Tim Quinn on drums moving between the Latin-style verses and the rock'n'roll choruses seamlessly.
