Another of Ricky Gardiner’s multi layered melodic guitar compositions from the Beggars Opera’s Get Your Dog off Me Vertigo

There’s an interesting story attached to this track. After Beggars Opera disbanded Ricky Gardiner was a producer for British Lion Music, which was part of the famed British Lion Films, who were at that time working on The Wicker Man starring Christopher Lee. Requiem was scheduled to be include in footage of a graveside scene, but never made it into the film. How spooky is that ! It was very atmospheric watching this take in British Lion’s plush viewing room in Soho at the time !
