about

“…when we were young, we were foolish, honey, that’s a fact!”

Taken from their forthcoming album ‘Time Will Throw Us Away’, ‘Walking in the Past’ is another example of the album’s premise - rocking guitar anthems with huge singalong choruses and codas

Wily Bo says, "This is one of the BIGGEST mixes I have ever produced, the coda is a true Spector-esque mix with a cast of thousands!"

A singalong finale to the album and live show - both the album and select gigs scheduled for 2024

Available as Hi Res Audio 24Bit 96khz FLAC or WAV download as well as regular MP3 etc
