Sunset On The Chesapeake

from Alternate Takes by Roger Aldridge

/

about

The Chesapeake Bay is a national treasure. An especially beautiful time to be on the Chesapeake is at sunset. This piece is dedicated to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and all of those who are working to restore and protect the Bay.

This is a true story.... When my wife Nancy and I were on the Chesapeake in 2010 a complete tune suddenly came into my mind. I did not recognize it. So, I listened to the music and thought, "That's a really nice tune". After a few minutes I realized that it was one of mine -- Sunset On The Chesapeake. I wrote the tune many years ago and had forgotten about it. I was amazed by what happened. It was like the Chesapeake tapped me on the shoulder to remind me of this music.

Note: The original release is on my Blues And Ballads album.
