Excellent work - very interesting lyric (obscure in part but evocative).
Very nice vocal and some lovely complimentary guitar work.
Peter Hey Peter Glad to you liked the song. Was wondering what you thought of two Canadians taking a stab at some dark outback country music :-)

Was wondering what you thought of two Canadians taking a stab at some dark outback country music :-) Liked the Blue Mountain(s) reference and the overall sound. Lot's of old Australian folk music has an Irish folk feel (not surprisingly). Thought you Canadians did a good job (we do share a similar heritage). Peter

No song should need Cole`s Notes to follow... but if folks can write zillions of words on the forum about stuff like bumping posts, I feel justified in providing a few unnescessary asides for the lyrics here ( which tell a tale 100% fictional , entirely accurate historically, and are based on Robert Hughes excellent book on Australia`s founding, The Fatal Shore).
" grog" booze (usually Rum at that time)
"black trackers" aborigines were far and away the best
"dance upon nothing" British term for hanging- they were public so it was a popular sport to watch the dancers!
"save us from the gallows
to sail us to the moon" - most early tranportees were sentenced to hang, the sentence commuted - a few years to life in Australia, a place as distant as the moon to your average 18th century bread thief.
There... if the song is still a mystery, a better scholar than I will need to get involved.

Oh My goodness Robert..
I love listening to your stuff because I never know what I am going to get. Like Forest Gump says "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get". Good one. Enjoyed this very much! I like that, Joanne. Being eclectic works both ways, of course - some folks like to know what`s coming, but I`m having fun and appreciate you checking in to listen. Robert Very interesting song, very unique and clever combination of digeridoo with baritone guitar - like aboriginals and native Americans making a common statement. Reminds also me of Nick Cave. Nice dark mood and lyrics.
Janne Thank you, Janne! I hadn`t thought of that cross cultural feel the guitar adds- I`m glad you liked this. Robert

Robert / Scott,
This is really excellent! Great arrangement and vocal - love the guitar lines by Scott. The overall vibe is mesmerizing.
It almost sounds like Black Sabbath going folk... Great stuff.
Bob Robert & Scott... I agree with everything Bob said. This is an awesome piece of music. VERY original. An interesting write. A very cool vocal. Cool guitar lines that "fit". The arrangement is well done. The mix is excellent. A terrific listen. fj

Floyd,
The mix worked well... once I took the guitarists( Scott`s) advice & changed my original choice for backing tracks.
Thanks for the positive comments.
Robert
