A New Way

Written and Recorded in 1987

An instrumental piece I wrote for jamming with my band called Flowers in autumn 1987. In those days, I was into the music of Jimi Hendrix, especially in his later years' works, and I hope this piece could reflect such source of influence. Personally, Jamming this tune was more about practicing the soloing on the guitar for me, as a result, I admit this take contains too long such soloing and improvising with a narrow extent of creativity. Unfortunately, this was the sole take we recorded as a band playing A New Way.

The piece was later converted to be a part of my long composition titled Life of My Own in the following year.

  1. I will wait for your long composition titled Life of My Own and I think it will be awesome. You have to think about writing a personal essay about your way to music life. I am always interested in how people start their own career and what difficult things they had to overcome.
