___________________ is the song that opens the Vertical Man album, featuring Jeff "Skunk" Baxter (of Steely Dan) on pedal steel
guitar, Jim Cox on organ, Hudson on guitars and bass (and back-up vocal), and Ringo on vocals, drums, and percussion. The sound of rhythmic breathing in and out in tempo starts the song. "One" "King of Broken Hearts" "Never Without You" "Liverpool 8" "Oh My Lord".
The result of this meeting was a song called "My Love", which was promptly renamed to "Everyday" after Starr commented that McCartney had already used the title. The song was demoed under that name by Starr, Hudson, Grakal, and guitarist Steve Dudas. Happy with this session, the quartet followed it up with more recordings the following month, at Los Angeles's Whatinthewhatthe? Studios. There the musicians recorded two tracks: "Mr. Double-It-Up" and "One", the latter of which, per Grakal's lyric sheet, was originally called "All It Takes Is One". For these sessions, Starr played the drum set he had used during his time with the Beatles.
John Williams' bassoon concerto, The Five Sacred Trees, was written for LeClair and her "unparalleled artistry." She premiered it in April 1995 as part of the New York Philharmonic's 150th anniversary festivities after having chosen him to receive the commission for the piece. She currently plays a 1937 Heckel bassoon.
