Title: "California Music" and In the Back of My Mind" 1975
Post by: PetSmile on October 15, 2018, 01:52:07 PM
Was the "In the Back of My Mind" (1975 Version) intended for the supergroup "California Music" or a random piano demo that was consigned to the vaults for a long time. Or perhaps it was for the Caribou Ranch Sessions? A lot of the music of California Music (the short-lived band, of which BW was a member) consisted of covers, so it seems logical to put "In the Back of My Mind" (1975 Version) on that work, rather than "Caribou Ranch Sessions". I'm trying to decide which album it would be most suitable for. Thanks.

Any thoughts on this would be useful.

I don't know for sure, but that's a very good guess.
