A Don Piper Situation

A Don Piper Situation is all about the sustain. In the choruses of his songs, Don will hold a note, another voice will grab another note, a trumpet or a clarinet or pedal steel will hit another and yet another until some impossible chord is hung out before you like a glass chandelier in all it's shimmering, flickering glory. 2000: "Saturate" -- Beatles/ Finn/ Love. 2003: "Inside a Change". Muted & beautiful but unmistakebly pop, The Situation's sound hangs in hazy memories of an autumn love affair -- Walker / Hazelwood/ Hunky Dory. Listen to the sustain
