Barry continues "I would just sit and strum on my own. I think it was just something that I sort of came up with and that was it."〔http://aln2.albumlinernotes.com/Idea__1968_.html〕 It was recorded on 14 June 1968 with "Such a Shame". Barry performs vocals on this track. The breathy vocals and orchestral instrumental break are similar to "In the Summer of His Years". The flute sound throughout is performed by Maurice Gibb on mellotron. Colin Petersen plays bongos on this track.〔http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/beegees/68.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kilburn Towers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
