Probably no one knows just how prolific Sweet Bronco frontman (and New Times pal) Chris Horgan is -- and that likely includes Horgan himself. With so many projects of the Fort Lauderdale songcrafter's own, and a constant stream of assists for other musicians in the bi-county area, how can one...

With the note that "I wish I had someone who can sing the harmony to this," Horgan unveils a booming, arpeggio-filled piano version of the Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel standard, "The Boxer." Although harmonies are sweet, this feels complete and majestic as is. Perhaps a pipe organ and timpani someday.
