Sinister chords for Halloween

Earlier this week, I played the Tony Banks LP, "A Curious Feeling," for the first time in a while.  Besides being impressed all over again with the album's lyrical and instrumental consistency, I recommend "From The Undertow" as an instrumental fit for Halloween.  I can imagine a haunted house grabbing visitors' attention from the first eerie chord of this keyboard number.

I never hear this 1979 track on the radio, but I hope that some college, community, or album rock stations take the hint and play it this Halloween.  If you like the epic, spooky sounds of Banks on the Genesis tune, "Watcher Of The Skies," this will likely appeal to you, as well.
