Composed for the late Gerry Doyle of Kilmarnock, Scotland.

Gerry was the bass player in Scottish psychobilly band “The Termites”. The Termites formed during the mid-1980s in Kilmarnock - A town that was, at the time, rich in psychobilly music with bands such as The Longhorns. It was with this band that the Termites first started out, supporting The Longhorns in Kilmarnock clubs. Initially a four piece of Kenny Mitchell (vocals), Scott Ballantyne (guitar), Ewin Murray (drums) and Gerry Doyle (electric bass), the band became known for powerful, and usually violent, live shows.

Gerry sadly passed away during the Covid pandemic.
