My instrumental cover of Simple Minds Once Upon a Time, one of my favourite Minds songs. Always for fun, just a hobby. Best with headphones or external speakers
I listened to this the other day and I thought “he’s nailed it - this is perfect!”. Since then I’ve found the song stuck in my head, specifically the 1985 Ahoy Rotterdam live version, which in my opinion is the best rendition of this song, and you’ve captured that vibe perfectly, right down to Charlie’s slightly syncopated descending glissando about halfway through. Burchill is what I call an “avant garde” guitarist, in other words a lot of the rythm and chord progression roles are swapped with the keyboards, and a lot of the ambient, effect and melodic decoration goes to the guitar. You have completely understood this and you play in an extremely sympathetic manner, totally understanding what the guitar is doing in this song. Thankyou for reminding me what a deep, complex and wonderful song this is, and thanks for inspiring me to listen to and play more minds :)

Thanks very much, that's a great compliment and I'm glad it invoked past memories for you. It's the alchemy between Charlie and Mick that did it for me, Once Upon a Time has always been one of my favourite songs!

One masterpiece of the Minds... Mc Neil and Giblin were true sound architects...while Gaynor, Burchill and Kerr were wonderfull sound artisans !
