Song facts

Now Hear This Song Of Mine” is a fragment of a song that has been used to create fourteen jingles to promote the “Ram” album on radios. All those jingles have been issued on a promo 12″ entitled “Brung To Ewe By” only available for radio stations only.

Paul may have tried recording ‘Now Hear This Song Of Mine’ before coming to me and was not happy. We started from scratch. He went to the piano and I recorded two versions of ‘Now Hear This Song Of Mine’, one bluesy and one up-tempo
