Very pretty song with your very recognizable clean sound and excellent phrasing.
A very nice evocative piece well performed.

Scott,

This sounds great - love the tone you're getting out of that Tele... The subtle backing tracks are very nicely mixed and provide just the right amount of support.

What a great selection of Instruments!

I can totally picture the slow-motion slide across the ice and snow into the abyss!

Wonderful melody on your guitar!

Scott,

How many guitars do you own?
So far we've seen (if memory serves us well) several Gibsons, a Strat and now a Telecaster (is that brown one not the one Springsteen used?
Again a very fine instrumental, with a wise choice of accordion and fiddle, which both work very well in this mix.

Sounding good Scott! I like that change to a minor chord in the second part. Thanks, Torrey

Scott,
Very pretty melody and with a nice country backing.
Beautifully played.
The combination of pirouetting & driving fills me with dread, but I enjoyed your take on the experience!

Yeah! Really nice Scott, I Like the composition and I like the way you phase your lines, very melodic.

the snow missed us for the most part, had one heavy downfall this year

fine guitar, this sounds like a movie soundtrack

maybe Fargo with the snow falling and drifting

blowing over the road

nice,

Kenny

Nice, Scott.

A terrific grouping of instruments for the background to your clean guitar. Well put together, good mix.

An enjoyable listen.

Hi Scott,

You pack so much music with relatively simple backing tracks. You always have just enough for a super sound but nothing that's not needed. Simplicity done right makes for some of the best music. You do it right! Wishing you well,

Alan & Di

Hi Rob Currently I have 8 guitars. The Telecaster is a 52RI. The music scene in Edmonton is pretty vibrant and there is allot of buy, selling and trading of musical instruments here in the city. I traded the Tele about a month ago for a Gibson ES339. The Tele has a super sound but I prefer the feel of the Stratocaster.

I did this song right after I received my 2017 BIAB. I was like a kid in a candy store listening to all the new Real tracks available and how well they fit together.

Thanks for checking out the song

Thanks Robert for checking out the song. Nice to be on the island. Prairie weather can be pretty crazy at times

First of all what is snow? I have a vague memory of such a thing but it has been a long time. Your personal style is very effective on this tune. Nice playing and a good choice of Real Tracks. Well mixed. Everything sits just right. I enjoyed it. Tom

Hi Scott,

You've got a great sound happening here. The music was very relaxing, very easy on the ears and completely mesmerising. Like others before me, I found the bell-like guitar work fascinating. This is definitely one to be proud of.

I really enjoyed the journey>

All the best,
Noel
