The song 'Small Beginnings' was a track from the first Flash album.  It was also the first real 'song' Peter Banks had written with Flash member Colin Carter some 30 years ago!  In the late '90s, Peter Banks had begun reworking and recording a new instrumental version of this track.  Athough numerous hours were spent on the project - a lenghty piece close to 20 minutes long - the track was never completed. 

Here for the first time is the unfinished opus!
