Speed of Heat features a beautiful version of “Apache.”
Oh, thank you. Of course, I was familiar with both the Jørgen Ingmann version and the Shadows’ version — Hank Marvin and the Shadows. I always loved the song, and similar to “My Old School,” I always thought there was a seed of power lurking in that composition. I thought, Okay, I’m going to have a try at seeing if I can inject some horsepower into this. And we definitely did. It’s lyrical and majestic — cinematic. That was kind of the idea because Apache refers to a very noble and majestic race of people. In my own way, I was trying to translate that.
