The original Obscure records version, still sounds amazing...
A beautiful piece from 1975. The band that played on the Titanic carried on playing as passengers desperately tried to escape into lifeboats. The musicians in the band all perished and in this moving tribute Bryars imagines the music carrying on all the way to the bottom of the Atlantic.

Because sometimes sinking is the feeling I'm feeling, and that's okay too.
Very excited to be seeing this on Sunday
