Mary and I visited China, Hong Kong, and Bangkok in 1994. While sitting in our room on the 20th floor of a hotel in Bangkok one night, I looked at the sunset going over the river and for some reason was put in mind of a James Bond film. That is how the title and theme for the music came about.

This guitar solo (midway through and ending bit) is the only time I ever recorded my Godin thin body amplified nylon string guitar.

Headphones help.
Be kind.
Love,
Reyn
