Chris Green is lucky to be alive! After three serious open heart operations, the last one in 2011 by Europe’s leading heart Professor at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital. This gave Chris the idea to write a song based on his heart valve replacement when he later discovered it was made in Austin, Texas. This great catchy song ‘Little Bit of Texas’ is also on the new ‘Goldmine’ album.
