This tune is about 30 years old, and was composed for a close friend of mine. His mother had died recently and he wanted a tune that would be played by a band at our local theater in her memory. It was played a few weeks later and I was lucky it got quite a lot of airplay on local radio. Only real tracks used is the bass as piano couldn't cope with the tempo. THIS is why we MUST have more piano solos for really slow tempos. I used the midi super track celtic air, and a choir from the reason 3 synth A tribute to the late Mrs Helen Shepherd

Graham, what a beautiful piece here. And a very moving tribute. Your accordion always sounds so good. This is very heartfelt, and professional. I can certainly see why it got a lot of airplay.
Just beautiful.

Yet another amazing tune, furry. I really enjoyed this one, despite the reason why the song was created (so sad). That's really cool that it got some time on the local radio!  I can see why it got the airtime! Can't wait to hear your next one.
Cheers,
Ember

Graham,
A lovely tribute. Your accordion has a rich full sound here and the angel choir in the background works well.
I see what you mean about the slow piano RT- I hope your wish is heard!

Thanks Steve, it had been lying dormant for ages, so I thought it was time I used some new trickery on it. The Celtic air is brilliant for backing, it's just a shame I couldn't use further real tracks

Hello, Graham
Very beautiful tune with really nostalgic melody!
I entirely agree with Robert.
A lovely tribute. Your accordion has a rich full sound here and the angel choir in the background works well.
The accordion's key nois is very real.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Have passed it on to a few musicians recently so hopefully it#ll gather up some steam again

A beautiful and fitting tribute. I spent a lot of my youth fishing and sailing on Loch Lomond.

Graham you did one outstanding job on the tribute. The mix is perfect and the sound choices are outstanding. You should never let a song like this site for 30 years.
