The Scepter (video)
The Scepter (audio)

Here's our second song for the year...perhaps a bit of a double entendre.

I was experimenting around with electric rhythm RT's for the tune, tried an amp sim on one, and Janice said it reminded her of an older Johnny Depp movie (Dead Man) for which the entire sound track consisted of just Neil Young on guitar. I mentioned it to Peter and like magic I shortly received some very much Neil Young inspired guitar solo tracks. Thank you Peter!

We both always appreciate your time to listen and comments are most welcome.

The SC file is the latest mix but you might also find the video of some interest.
