The track "Autograph" on the album Moving Target (1995) contains a melody written by former Soviet Union progressive rock band Autograph, and therefore is considered as Andre Andersen's tribute to that band.
The name originated from a painting seen in a museum by the founding member/keyboardist Andre Andersen. |
