Sometime in the last 15 years [memory getting foggy] an American record label approached my old writing partner about including one of our old tracks on a compilation CD.
Songs written in the late 70s when we were 18 or 19.
That was a motivation to dig out old tapes and try to rescue them to PC hard drive.
The music was still good for it's age, but the lyrics as bad as I thought they would be to my middle aged ears.... 😬
The last time I was inspired to write a batch of new lyrics was circa 1999.
At the time I considered them not good, but potential for revisiting in the future, with a view to improvement..
