Lots o' thanks to GOD for helping me with this!
This instrumental was written in the back of a tour bus while
they were on the road. It only appears on a couple hard-to-find
Jars of Clay CD's, and one Taylor Guitars CD called Sounds of
Wood & Steel 2.
Here's all the pointless details for anyone who's interested
(as quoted from Sounds of Wood & Steel 2):
Wicker Baskets
Jars Of Clay (2:50)
(Dan Haseltine/Charlie Lowell/Matt Odmark & Stephen Mason)
Bridge Building Music Inc. (BMI)
Jars Of Clay:
Taylor 422 (standard tuning),
Taylor 420-PF (standard tuning)
Produced by Stephen Lipson
Arranged by Jars Of Clay
Recorded by Heff Moraes at Secret Sound,
Nashville, TN and Aquarium, London, UK
Mixed and Engineered by Heff Moraes
"Originally written in the back lounge of our
tour bus, this piece came to full realization
while we were working on our 1997 release,
"Much Afraid". Stephen Lipson, producer of
"Much Afraid" added his production finesse
while we were in London to create the final
mix. Many of the songs we write start this
way, as simple, dual acoustic melodies. Some
eventually become electric/acoustic rockers
and some, with quiet vocals added, grow into
powerful ballads. But this song seemed
different - a quiet, reflective song that sounded
perfect just the way it was.
