For a Moment

Written by my dear old friend Brian Dyre back in 1984; we played this tune in the first real band I was ever in, it was called Sgt. Friday. I've wanted to cover it forever, so I contacted Brian and asked if I could. He said it would be fine, and could he play on it? I was thrilled! Brian sent me all the sax and flute parts you hear, I'm the drums, bass, keyboard, and guitars.

(In case you're wondering, that odd intro/interlude is the horns and guitars playing a 5/4 and a 7/4 bar while the drums play 3 bars of 4/4)
