I'll steal this 'cause I couldn't say it any better other than perhaps to add the word mesmerizing. It went perfectly with my cup of coffee while watching a gentle rain out the window. Nice J&B

Scott,
Nice insistent rhythm behind your lovely melody; it would make a great theme for a Western movie.
I really liked your guitar tone on this.

Hello, Scott
Sweet Guitar as usual.
And this tune has some melancholy melody.
I feel Nordic a little.
I wonder if it is related to the climate of Edmonton.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best Regards.
