Well thank you much Greg. I worked pretty hard on getting this piece to gel.
It comes from an idea about how the reactors work and all of the energy that is contained inside. If you listen at different levels you can hear all kinds of notes being played, inspired by a player that is no longer with us but did shape my arranging skills.
Hint first name Frank!
See Ya soon.

Yes very Zappa like!
I really like the motion in this one, i.e. lot of things happening at once. You did a super job getting all of this to gel together so nicely.
I loved your guitar in this, super chops man.
Great job on this – two thumbs up.
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Hi D A!
Very busy, yet not cluttered. It takes a fine touch to accomplish that and you pulled it off perfectly! And yes, the power and energy blasts through and captures us immediately. Loved all the instrumentation and the mix was great - hard to do with so much going on. A tip of the hat for a job very well done!

Top of the morning to Scott709, MarioD, Al-David, RichMac and others.
I just wanted to take this moment to thank all the forum members both young and seasoned (me), for having a hangout so that we can express one of our greatest desires the creative soul within each of us.
We know where it comes from and who gave it to us, the journey has been long, the past is gone, the "present" is a "gift" of here and now, this moment and all the future is left to the master arranger for whom we all are fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:14.

How cool is this that you can emulate a Zappa flavored song in BB?
Impressed..... yes!
Nice licks.
I got into Zappa for a time through a friend who was into FZ big time. Some brilliant stuff. To bad he's gone....
Back to your tune..... very nice indeed.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Greetings Dani! "I get good vibes by listening to this." Hopefully "Z-pinch" hasn't effected your hearing to much, I recommended a good cup of Morning Coffee to go along with that! DA...

I certainly felt the energy!
I wasn't expecting the jazzy sound, a neat departure from the rock stuff you've posted lately.
Professional as usual:)

Well coming from a great singer songwriter like you, I'll take that as a good thing.
Now if I can get back to rolling up some more pennies, I'll be looking at saving for some more toy's. I think the neighbors are a little sleepless lately:)
