Chase the Shadows - Robin Sengupta

Описание: Solo concert at the Kala Mandir Basement, Kolkata, 1987.
My good friend Randy Francis helped organize the concert.
I had asked every musician I knew to back me for the concert but they all declined because it was a concert of my own songs! :D
Randy's response, 'F@#$ them. Do it solo'!! Lol ... you'd have to know Randy ... :D
Someone stuck a portable Cassette Recorder in front of one of the Front of House speakers before the concert started.
I used my trusty 4-channel Trucker PA Amplifier [which had Reverb on it] with two Celestian dual-cone 12" speakers in locally made, padded, particle-board enclosures. The guitar was plugged in to the Trucker. I rented a Shure 58 from Radio Enterprise for my vocal.

Chase the Shadows - Music and Lyrics by Robin Sengupta.

Crescent moon
Not a minute too soon
With a star or two beside
Terror blind me
Pale blue light find me
Willing to let it ride

Heart of my heart
We been apart
Only thing I ever wanted
End to this fear
You always near me
But I swear that I'm being haunted

By these shadows growing longer
And only you can chase them all away
And my love is so much stronger
Than all my thoughts turned to words can ever say

Now I've got touchdown fever
I'd be a leaver
Cos its been too long already
Mind is reelin
Conflicting feelin
And my hands no longer steady

See it clearly
Paid so dearly
All the lies that I have swallowed
Have caused you pain
Drive me insane
And I swear that I'm being followed

By these shadows growing longer
And only you can chase them all away
And my love is so much stronger
Than all my thoughts turned to words can ever say

You said I shouldn't see things
Through the windows of my heart
Because they only turn them blue and I'm tryin
All these memories of passions
And of kisses are they dreams or are they true
I gotta know because I'm dyin
And I'm hopin that I'll very soon be flying

Right across that

Crescent moon
Not a minute too soon
With a star or two beside
Terror blind me
Pale blue light find me
Willing to let it ride

Yeah these shadows growing longer
And only you can chase them all away
And my love is so much stronger
Than all my thoughts turned to words can ever say
