Paul Murphy - 'Journey's End'

After 43 years, and around 1800 songs... here's the last one. The camera 2 footage has better sound, but not the 'farewell speech' at the end. This is alsothe only version of it. I tried a second take later in the day, but the fingers refused to move and it fell short by the last verse and a half. Well, Samson only asked for his hair to grow back for one push.

Fate and my F-MND permitting, I will place outtakes and some other vault material up in what time I have left, but this is the last original. Tomorrow, for the first time in 43 years, if a new song comes along, I will turn it away.

Pax,
Me
