Belfast songwriter Andy White tells the story of writing and recording Best of Times from his latest album Good Luck I Hope You Make It. The pandemic is underway, lockdown has happened, and Andy starts writing this track after recording a song for a club in Italy and reading the opening passage of A Tale of Two Cities.
Andy dives into the original recording session to play you some of the layers that contributed to the making of the song. He discovers a bizarre alternative ending for the song involving a reenactment of D Cummings' fateful car trip to Durham, and this is included in the unreleased rough mix of the song included here.
