SUNDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO: “Frontiers of Love” (live)
-- This song imagines walking through the night-time across a dark, windy landscape, drawn by the promise of a warmly lit window glimmering on the horizon.
The music emerged from when I was in a Celtic/Scottish music phase, and it blooms from a holy heart-place.
It has been a staple of my live set for many years.
I made a "full band" demo of it, then it found new life solo-acoustic, played on a detuned 12-string in an open C tuning.
A couple people have detected a Yes influence in this, which I won’t deny, but (truth being specific) it was largely inspired by "A Sort of Homecoming” by U2.
