I wrote this song around 2010 at the sudden loss of a good friend and it was one of the three bonus tracks on Live at the Pump’ released in 2012. I have remixed and remastered it and hope it honours my friends Ray, Martin and Louise. As far as I can remember I have never or rarely played it live except at Martin’s sendoff at the Eglise Anglicane in Dinard in 2013
DOTM 1 June
‘Brighter Day’ Recorded live on the Bob Harris BBC Radio show in 1974
Kicking off with the first DOTM for June 2020 is a real curiosity. I was assembling potential tracks from a variety of sources and wondering which one to go with first when I got a message from Neil via my contact form that said:
Hello Keith. I have your single “Brighter Day” but am obliged to admit that I infinitely prefer the version which you recorded for a Radio 1 session in the mid 70s. I’m also obliged to admit that I home taped this but, of course, the tape is more or less unusable after all this time.
Do you happen to know if there’s any way I can get hold of this version?
Well Neil, what an amazing coincidence that is as I haven’t played that track for about 20 years and had only added it to the list the week before – I hope you like it as much as you remember!
DOTM 2 July

I wrote this in 2015 at the same time as I was writing all the tracks for ‘Crazy Dancing Days’ but decided not to put it on the album
