William's World

Well firstly, this is a superb song from the wonderful and hugely talented Ian McNabb, called 'Makin' Silver Sing' (think guitars strings), from the excellent 'Our Future In Space' album (highly recommended)...so it's definitely worth a listen.

The promo video features brief glimpses of some of the worlds finest and most talented and accomplished artists/musicians/guitar players and I'm pleased to say Bill Nelson (and Simon Fox), Modern Music tour footage, is featured! and quite rightly keeping the exalted company he deserves and indeed has earned over the decades..and seeing this brief glimpse of Bill in this company, it just 'seems right'..although I'm pretty sure Bill would downplay that, I think it is the right gravitas that Bill should be regarded in...He should be more widely recognised in the very top tier of world class musicians, and I think in the last few years has received and indeed is receiving much more recognition an acknowledgment on that front.

We all know Bill shuns the celebrity limelight and all that jazz, and I think we all appreciate that stance..I imagine to Bill, art is it's own reward, creating, striving to progress, move forwards, looking to catch perfection, or as close as one can get.

'Makin' Silver Sing' doesn't really need any explanation, there are some wonderful guitar players / musicians in this video and I do happen to know how highly Ian McNabb regards Bill Nelson...

So, it's a great song to listen to and pretty much the perfect video to accompany it...

I hope others may enjoy watching, and listening to it!
