Khyber Pass by Ed Atwell @blackmax222

5 strings 5 weeks 5 minutes On the north shores of Wadsworth sits the Wigwam. A place dear to my heart. As babies this was where my brother and I were introduced to the good people of Gilmour and Gunter 55 years ago. West by north west of the Wigwam there are three mystical ravines that come together named by Joe Simon as the Khyber Pass. This was my elders hunting grounds for years before building a new cottage on Cashel lake. My Mom (AKA Jan) filmed the footage in the video in an about 1967, We thought it would somewhat of a spiritual journey retracing her footsteps all these years later... and it was. Before now the last time I stood at the Wigwam I was with my Brother Jess. my brother and I were teenagers. We walked from Gilmour through the woods to the Khyber Pass and then to the Wigwam. We just sat looking out across the lake. A memory for a life time, so it will be. This song has come from nowhere to find me. I wrote the poem years ago.... my brother loved it Not possible without these people Thank you so much James Atwell for producing, engineering, and piano collaboration. Thank you so much Faith Thibault for lending your beautiful voice and helping with lyrical framing, You know how to make me leave the studio....wink wink.
