Robert, I'm with Bob Dean, the lines... this ain`t no time
for your one man show
there`s no king here
everybody`s gotta row ...are excellent. Very inspired lyrics indeed. I found this journey fascinating, hypnotic and the effects were incredibly atmospheric.... science fiction meets science fantasy meets the end of the world in folk style. Sounds like you might have invented a whole new genre! There is a ton of creativity on show here. Thanks for sharing this. I enjoyed the ride on Saving Grace. All the best, Noel

Really cool tune. LOVE the guitar finger picking. Very thoughtful and thought provoking lyrics. Your vocal on this seemed to fit the material perfectly. Nice job all around.

Robert,
An excellent song.
Good write. Good arrangement - really liked the way you brought the accordion in. Good use of the BAND all around. Good vocal. Good mix.
What more is there to say?
Good.
fj
Floyd, Thanks for your listen and approval! Robert Robert
Extremely evocative. Loved the lyric the vocal (nice backing vocals) and the arrangement.
Excellent work.
Peter I`ll take "evocative" anytime- much appreciated, Peter! Robert Robert this is really good! I like the way your inter-weaved a folk background and sci-fi together. Good lyrics and vocal together with a great mix makes this a winner.
Two thumbs up.
Mario, The sci-fi sounds were a happy find on Looperman - some very good free sounds there. Thanks for your thumbs up! Robert

Hello, Robert
The finger picking of the guitar has a wonderful taste on this tune.
The characteristics of your melody are outstanding.
These folky songs are perfect for you, and your vocals are also very pleasant.
Your Loop selection is very effective as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Hi Shigeki, Very simple chords this time; I`m happy you liked the melody they led me to. Thanks for your kind comments. Robert

Robert, This is kind of a science fiction psychedelic folk song. Very interesting lyrics that take the listener on a image inducing ride. So very unique and all the while so listenable. I enjoyed it very much, Tom

Super Robert. Really well done. Great lyrics and great melody. I love the harmonies too. Enjoyed all round. Thanks for that , Joanne... appreciate the mention of the harmonies as I`ve been trying to improve there. Robert Excellent song no king here!!! love it!!! That line is about as political as I care to get. Thanks for the listen and likes. The future is here...now.
"Consultate of Doom..." makes me look out the window!
Very well done Robert. The track build throughout and your vocal performance really set up the lyric. Very textured.
The soundstage is excellent on our monitors -- never use cans.
Folk meets the future...how cool is that?!
Most enjoyable.
J&B
J&B, Don`t worry, that Consulate can`t touch your woodsy hangout...your force field protects you! I only listen on monitors to check the headphone mix so happy it worked for you. Robert Hi Robertkc
Nice, reminds me of a simpler time, which makes life more clearly remembered. Good song Thank you - I like the way you worded that and appreciate your listen. Robert

All good to my ears. A bit of a mash up, and it worked really well. A lot of subtle stuff went wooshing by me.
As J&B said, "future folk".
Now I'll need to check out ReaSurround - you've got me curious.

I appreciate your liste, Sergio. Robert Robert, This is kind of a science fiction psychedelic folk song. Very interesting lyrics that take the listener on a image inducing ride. So very unique and all the while so listenable. I enjoyed it very much, Tom Tom, I guess the theme of escape to a better world has been covered so many ways - glad you found my version different. Thanks for your thumbs up. Robert All good to my ears. A bit of a mash up, and it worked really well. A lot of subtle stuff went wooshing by me.
As J&B said, "future folk".
Now I'll need to check out ReaSurround - you've got me curious. If mash-up means "fusion", I like that! I probably used the ReaSurround in the most unsophisticated way possible ( moving the track across the field in "latch" mode)- no doubt there`s alot more that can be done. Thanks for your listen and comments. Robert
