Al,
I enjoyed this. Its very well put together with some interesting chord changes and sizzling guitar...and above all it flows beautifully. Its good to hear from you again!
Robert Thanks so much, Robert. This came together in about 3 hours - start to finish. The concept (chord pattern, style of backing tracks, etc., were pretty much in my mind when I sat down to start this. Glad you enjoyed it - thanks so much! Alan

Al, first I'm glad that Di is hanging in there. You both are in our prayers.
Second, I green with envy about that jazz box you just purchased
Third, great song. Super chops man!
Fourth, no one gets tired of instrumentals!
Last, I know all about writing songs when on chemo. Been there - done that. Hey Mario! 1. Thanks for the well wishes for Di - much appreciate by both of us. 2. I've been wanting this or another ES-175 (had one back in the 60s). This was in my price range! The neck is so comfortable and great sound from the box. 3. Thank you. A very nice compliment from an accomplished instrumentalist. 4. I don't get tired of instrumentals, but some folks do. A matter of personal likes & dislikes, I guess. And yeah, that chemo can slow ya down real fast! But we're here to complain about it!!! best to you, Alan

The very best to both of you!!!
And it's nice to see you back here.
We love your track. It's well mixed and as others have mentioned it really shows off Brent and what can be done with a RT. The processing is cool.
We hope you are able to drop by more often.
J&B Hey Ya'll! Hope all is well in North Georgia. Things are slowly getting better here in Northern Alabama. Thank you for those nice comments. I appreciate them very much. And thanks for the well- wishes directed to Di. I doubt she'll sing again - so damned sad.  Can't go wrong with A Brent Mason part! Wishing you two the best. Alan

Good to hear from you Alan. Wow such beautiful guitar work. Loved this tune. So dreamy and floating music. Well done..... Hi Scott, Thanks for dropping in for a listen. Glad it was worth your while. I wish that were me playing the lead - but it's Brent Mason. What a picker he is! Best to you, Alan

Alan, I hope you do a whole album of this kind of stuff. Wonderful guitar work. I am glad you and Di both are feeling better. Howdy! Thank you for those very kind words. I could put together an album of this in a couple fo weeks if I worked real hard at it. Might do that! Many thanks. Wishing you well, Alan

Hi Alan,
Not had a lot of time on the forum myself recently, but nice to see you back and I hope both you and Di are going on well.
What can I say about the track. You write from the heart, just like you sing. That says it all really - you can't ask for more. Fabulous.
Take care, my friend.
All the best, ROG.

Shigeki Adachi Thank you, Shigeki! Those are some very nice words. But that's Brent Mason playing guitar - he does a pretty good job, eh?! Thanks again. Alan
