You definitely kept it interesting with the musician and production skills. The angelicals (I think) reminded me a bit of Star Trek. I love the bits you play on guitar. Altogether, an amazing sound, scifi space feel.
Thanx Sören for taking the time to listen and comment. I appreciate it.

Thanx for this wonderful review.
I arrived early to a restaurant. The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?" I said no. "Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

First I watched that video, expecting you to perform in it some way. But the song in it was not your style. Your own version of rhythm King was far more interesting! Really cool, with all those sounds. You're a much more creative guy than I thought you already were! Liked it all very much,

An excellent song to listen to along with our porch wind chimes while looking through our forest out the window.
A great creative jam and as always the performances are top tier ... as is the mix.
Most enjoyable,
J&B

Mario...this is very sound-tracky...weird and wonderful...love the texture running in and out...could be the perfect soundtrack for one of those 1950's sci-fi B-movies...very cool!

Thanx so much Janice and Bud. Yes Bob and I can be very creative. Bob know little music theory but he uses that to his advance, i.e. he comes up with some excellent chord progressions.

Thanx Dan. I never thought about it but you are right, it could be used for a 50's sci-fi B-movie.
