There are several recorded versions of this song. The other versions are instrumental only. It was at the suggestion of a radio promoter that I added a lyric and vocal.

The lyric is a little ethereal and shows a little “Lucy in the Sky” type of influence.

I’m not quite certain the added vocal helped bring greater exposure to the song but that’s the way the story goes. I’m glad I did it because there is a certain segment of those interested who like vocal recordings.

Be kind.

“Astoria”
(Philipsek)

I’ve been dreaming
Of a multi-colored scheme
Sunshine
Blue Skies
Crimson Flowers Flare

Calm
Peace
Dream
Astoria

Soaring
Above and
Beyond the here and now
No more
Waiting
Wondering
Where and why I
