A little ditty about space. Warning: copious amounts of reverb and delay!

Cool! It's got a nice Pink Floyd vibe to it. I like the ending.

Thanks for listening guys. I didn't set out to write a Floydish song - it just came out that way. The prominent reverb/delay was meant to convey a spacey feeling. Actually, it was just an excuse to use my new Tele. Regards, Bob

Hi Bob, This is excellent. I like your work so much. My only suggestion, and this is purely personal, would be to introduce that glorious Tele sound a little earlier. You have lots of space between the verse lines to play some nice counter melodies. I'd like to hear the guitar start with maybe a loooong single held note after the "nobody knows" line. Just my preference tho - it's a great track! Reverb works for me too!!  Good luck with it. Martin
Music is what our feelings sound like.

Thanks Martin. I was a bit reluctant about the Tele, I'm mostly an acoustic player, but I just had it set up by a luthier and it plays like butter. Maybe I'll layer some more in there as you suggest. I'm taking my hollowbody in to the luthier next week. Can't wait - sustain forever!
Regards,
Bob

I liked that a LOT! to my ears, the reverb was appropriate for the mood of the song. I only have one complaint: in the middle of the song when everything paused for moment, I was expecting a creamy sustained guitar solo to begin... BUT IT DIDN'T! Bummer, I was all ready to hear it and everything. But, you threw me a curve when you came back in with the laid-back continuation of your established theme. It's always somewhat of a coup to surprise the listener. but really, in the final analysis, I totally enjoyed it exactly as presented. Good job. From now on, your nickname shall be "Pinky" (as in Floyd)

Thanks Pat. I heard that solo in my head as well, but decided on a minimalist approach. (Plus, I'm a hack on lead guitar, and would probably ruin it).
I'm just having great fun with BIAB, it's like a musical sketch pad.
Happy New Year!
Regards,
Bob
