Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
Another song that developed from a totally different idea. Sometimes as recording progresses, songs take on a life of their own and dictate how it should go forward. I'm only the vessel somtimes in cases like this. It's great to see how it ends up. A special note to any Bill Nelson fans . . .'Space Ranch'. You'll know what I mean. I used the Parker Fly guitar throughout this recording.
Lyrics
Time Unfolds So Slow. David A Briggs c 2011. Looking into the future, let's all embrace the past. Rocket-ships and Steam trains, the time runs out so fast . . . I sit watching the Heavens, I'd like to dive far below. Telescopes and submarines, Time unfolds so slow . . . spoken. "We have monitored your electronic ways for many years, and are captivated by sound of the instrument that you call the electric guitar. Also we wish to meet with the leader of the Earth species that are known as Whales. Their messages have been travelling through time and space for many thousands of years". . . Time unfolds so slow ... Time unfolds so slow ... Time unfolds so slow ...

David this is really good, reminds me a little of The Alan Parsons Project no particular track but has the same feel he achieves, great guitar and vocals, production is neat and tidy even though theres a lot going on, thanks for the heads up, great stuff.

Yes - like Tim I know what you mean about songs having a life of their own. However it happened this is a great piece of music - so many ideas and sounds all pinned together with a subconscious snare pulse. Truly original, quality stuff and I enjoyed every second.

Whenever I get sick and tired of the radio, including satellite, I visit your page (bookmarked) to find the essence of musical creativity. Thank you for the work you do. You are an inspiration and the most brilliant artist on this or any other site I know of.

Not bad my friend, not bad at all. I know how much time it takes to write some of these, ( which I don't seem to have much of) The drums seem to stand out a bit over your great vocal, but thats just my own opinion. Great work David!!! Should go far in the ratings, :)

Has a real delia feel about it. Like the tremolo timbre on your strings & your telephone voice. Made me think of Bill Nelson and XTC. A big and adventurous production. Great stuff!!
