Great Song!

I add my thanks for posting this terrific song. I had it on a vinyl LP long ago, but never thought to copy it to cassette!... Listening to Burt's own arrangements is something special. We get to hear what he "heard" inwardly, in his own creative genius, before committing the piece to paper. This is a splendid piece, however much or little people may know of it or have heard it.

Hi Vincent and Steve,
You can almost imagine yourself travelling to "Shangri-La" listening
to this very "atmospheric" piece of music....such a strong "image" !!!
Yes, it's a shame that many people may never have heard it......
And that "ending"............WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o
