"And it's full speed into the light years
Shift through all the tired dreams
There’s a new moon on the mountain
If I can fly this old machine"
Wonderful imagery ... no surprise there.
Your emotive vocal and the strummed acoustic gives this a strong singer/songwriter feel and the additional tracks move it more into the Americana groove. Whatever it's a good place to reside.
Well done - excellent production!

"Shift through all the tired dreams"
"And see your face in every mile"
Superb lyrics. Amazing achievement, from every angle. Yes, this WOULD sit so well with the Lennon/Dylan records. It's got the simplicity of Lennon and the lyricism, pathos (even, perhaps?) of Dylan. It's also got a certain seriousness about it which I like.
Bravo - this goes straight into my "songs I want to hear again" playlist! :-)

Really enjoyable listen Bob! You catch attention right away, then keep our attention for the whole ride. I may have picked up a few rhyme ideas from you  -C

'rsdean'...
Your songs always have an impressionistic effect on me. It's partly because of what I perceive as a quality of yearning in your voice that's also somehow edgy and urgent. The personality in your songs is like someone who is always on the move, but observes every single thing going on around him, missing nothing. In this song, the tempo of the Real Tracks instruments -- the steady, reassuring rhythm of the guitar strumming and the measured, yet laid back drumming -- mark each word of your lyrics like footprints on the path of your metaphorical journey. The song is taking us somewhere in a rush of kaleidoscopic imagery that embraces the earth and the heavens. That's a pretty vast 'songscape' that ranges from the intimate to the infinite. On all points this is a mesmerizing listening experience that, as 'they' said during the 60's, really opens up your mind.
