Well Dani, every so often everything seems to fall into place and a song so exceeds expectations that it reaches to the heights of Spectacular. This is one of those songs. This is a well written song, the style, vocals, mix and especially the harmonies are all spot on. But there's more. Aleck's solo takes this one over the top. Great collaboration.
You have truly raised the bar for your future posts with this one. One of your best, if not the best you've done so far. I don't think a song and performance could fit you any better. Thanks for posting. I love this one.

Another Dani classic with the wonderful harmonies. Love the panning you use on the vocal and also the key change. Loved Deans solo. Nice collaboration guys.

Great song, I have never tried doing a vocal song in odd time, this one meters so well with the lyrics; thanks for sharing!

Hi, Charlie ol´pal !:))
You are just too kind with me but as you know I do feel most humble by your most kind words !:))
The 5/4 meter is not necessarily the easiest of meters to work with and there are no soloists (none that I know od) that can handle a solo to that meter ! I feel most humble that Dean offered to play a solo to it ......and what a solo !!!
Cheers Dani

Dear friend Guenter !
I know you love harmonies and honestly I also had you in mind (in fact every time) when pondering on if and in that case how many voices to put into the mix ! :))
Dean´s solos are nothing less than unearthly !:))
Thank you Guenter for your most kind words

Hi, Robert !:))
Thank you for your most kind words ! The odd meter, yes, there could be a lot more of them as they often make music more interesting than most used meters ?
Cheers Dani

Really interesting and cool tune!! And, what a killer solo by Dean! I feel the vocal processing could be a bit lighter and the level a bit higher in some parts. Great stuff!! Take care. Greg

Hi, Greg !:))
Yes, I think you are right, it sounds a bit heavy and sharp at places !:)) I think we must blame it on the poor mixing abilities of the composer ! (chuckle) !!:)) Thank you, Greg, for your most kind and constructive words !
Cheers Dani

A fine example of what this BIAB community can produce with collaborations. This sparkles and the harmonies are gorgeous. Then you have the cool guitar behind it all. Glad this one fell into place for you!!
We enjoyed it.

Floyd,
We thank you. It's good that you didn't get to learn the whole story behind this Keystone Kops Kollaboration. I am going to leak some of it when I send a comment to Dani.
