SHREM'S INSTITUTE OF LOST CLASSICS: "ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL" - Ilya

This magnificent piece of music was released back in 2003. It's a dramatic, panoramic feast of old-fashioned melodies, Manhattan Transfer style harmonies with a pinch of unexpected, intricately arranged jungle beats all in 5 minutes! Miss Joanna Swan at the top of her vocal game as well. "Asleep At The Wheel" included on their debut EP "Revelation", was sadly omitted from the final version of their sensational debut LP "They Died For Beauty". It is a song beyond beauty, a one of a kind sonic experience, one of those quiet winners among my all time favourite tracks. Chapeaux bax...
