I wrote this in 1988 after going to Pebble Beach! This is my wife's and sister's favorite song of mine so I thought I'd put it on! My golf ball is still under the lip of one of those sand traps! |

I always enjoyed the trombone solos in Chicago's tunes so I wrote a rock trombone tune! Doug Robinson plays so well on trombone here and Mike Breen adds some neat guitar lines! His solo in blues middle is my melody note for note! I may start new song with that some day! |
