"The Earl of Kent" is a total remake for a local filmmaker of a song I wrote and recorded way back in 2013. Originally titled "Strange day" this track is a very laid back Smokey room kind of piece. Almost cabaret-rock. Most noted by guitar fans for its guitar solo this "Earl of Kent" version has a much better sound and mix. The drums are enhanced and the bass and most of the guitar parts were totally reworked.

My fan following especially on the guitar boards makes a big deal about my song titles. I think they're what sell the songs in many cases. They're all important to me in some way, or relate to my life at a given point in time one way or another. So As always I like to explain the titles...

First off I should point out the "Earl of Kent" is best known as a character in Shakespeare's "King Lear". In the case of my song here the "Earl of Kent" is actually a name that I gave to a composer and filmmaker friend of mine in the UK named Pete. While he does live in Kent which is in the southeastern part of GB. He's more of a servant type than a noble. The tie in with the "Earl of Kent" name is just that. Kent is Lear's servant in "King Lear". So there's no real mystery with the title. I just happened to be chatting with Pete on Twitter recently with all of us being quarantined in our homes right now. So I thought I would cheer him up by giving him a song title, which may not seem like much to all of you out there, but in my circle of friends it's a real rite of passage. Everyone wants a song title and asks me about when they'll get one all the damn time.

The above being said, this one's for Pete. Sorry, I mean "The Earl of Kent". cheers mate!!

Enjoy... and as always, CRANK IT UP!!!!!
