Coming in July 2025: Time travel is possible! Marc is reviving a 40-year old track and adds his additional parts in “When I Take The Five” featuring Antartica.

The simple fact that the stereo tracks from the early 1980s were revivable at all is a miracle to begin with. With effort from my old friends and bandmates Jeff Carano (bass) and Ray Lavigne (drums), I’ve been able to do some audio restoration and enhancements to the damaged track, recorded live in stereo using only 3 microphones in a farmhouse cellar. This might seem impossible to many, but it’s pretty listenable.
Since we were really a three-piece band, playing the melody I had for this piece was never possible. It seemed pretty complete without it, frankly. Today, I am adding it with harmonic embellishments by playing virtual saxophones on keyboards. I’ve altered the melody to reflect a touch of where I am today as a musician. It comes off as much more jazzy this way. I am thrilled to be able to present this composition in its complete form.
Thanks go to Ray and Jeff!
Stay tuned! This track will be released after the conclusion of the “STIR” series.
