I was working on a completely different song with a completely different vibe, but this riff kept coming out of my fingers. Well, who am I to argue with inspiration? So, I saved the other project and started this one.
The guitar tone sounded vaguely reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix’ tone on “The Wind Cries Mary,” so I decided that “Wind” might be a good name for it. (Wind as in “blows” rather than wind as in “me up.”) Normally, I wouldn’t do a guitar solo at all, let alone like the one I did on this piece, but for some reason, it seemed to fit.
I think there are some lyrics floating around out in the ether for this one… just haven’t managed to grab them yet.
