Camel Ride

Ambient: Riding a Camel in the desert. My friend Kevin (who orders the pizza in 'Take-Away') had bought himself a Mac and Midi system setup back in the mid 80's. Asked me to come over with a tune (Just by chance I had this 'Camel Ride') and give it a go to see how it works....and I went ape. This basically was my introduction to home recording systems and what wonderful toys they are.
