Robert, we love your work and the backstories always add so much.
"I cannot play things as they are
in the sky I hear a blue guitar"
That adds just the right amount of dots for the listener to connect. Cool.
Several mentioned the progression and we'll join in on how effective it is in setting the mood. Very nice.
Your vocals add so much to the already mystical tapestry. The harmony really adds to the build.
And as floyd said about Scott's contribution: "Really "fits the song" and adds to it." YES! It's way beyond just throwing in some licks no matter how well executed. His part so well complements the vocal and overall arrangement.
Re the mix we feel everything works. All is good there on the monitors. Excellent soundstage.
Great collab and use of BiaB.

Robert, you and Scott are a natural duo! Your vocals and Scott's guitar are a perfect match for each other. Your backing tracks were spot on and your mix was excellent.
This is really good, great job.

Hi Rob and Scot,
A very interesting song. Nice composition. The way the song progresses is very nice/interesting.
Like it!
Hans Thank you,Hans! Very good listen. Thoughtful lyrics, steamy guitar. I like that adjective for Scott~s playing - thanks for your comments. Fascinating composition & production...
Undoubtedly one of the more unique works on the showcase...
The vocals, background, & guitar all blend into a mysterious musical painting...
Good collaboration guys...
I really enjoyed the listen! Jim, I appreciate those kind comments. Robert/ Scott
Really interesting piece - unpredictable. Really enjoyed the way it moved around and the overall prog rock production. Excellent vocal and guitar work.
A top notch collaboration.
Peter Glad you liked our efforts, Peter. I was thinking more psychedelic ( eg early Love) than prog rock, but will take your thumbs up! Robert

Robert,
Cool song. A good production. Good vocal - one of your best, I think...
Scott - some of your best work. Really "fits the song" and adds to it...
Another good collaboration for the two of you.
fj Thanks Floyd.

David,
I don`t know about the Talking Heads reference, but appreciate your thumbs up on the mix and our sound. Thanks for noticing our difference!
RayC,
I had made a note about that conga entry - agree it should come up or disappear.
To my ears the song lags without a drum kit as well as the congas, but your comments on the balance are useful and will get a revisit at some point.
Joe,
Thanks for your listen and comments.
Kenny,
We appreciate your positive take on our collaboration!
Robert

J&B Thank you for all the good you found in this, J&B. Strange; I thought I had borrowed that line from Wallace Stevens ( its a long poem I read once), but it seems its mine... I`m quite pleased about that! Robert

Thanks, Torrey Torrey, Its a treat working with Scott - to find a guitarist who "gets" your songs is darn cool for a writer who never got past strummming! Robert,

Greg Thank you for that, Greg. I tweaked the mix to bring out the congas - it seems a bit more magical to my ears now. Robert & Scott ...

Nicely done! This might be one of my favourites from you. Wonderfully catchy with vibrant instrumentation, and your vocals soar on this. It flows gorgeously, and the guitar interlude pull it all together for me. Wouldn't change a thing - thanks for sharing 
Cheers,
Deryk

I think you heard the adjusted the percussion mix.Keeps the congas from getting lost. Scott`s solo really suits the change too. I concur with the others--great collaboration. Arrangement and production is done nicely. Very haunting. I love Scott's guitar part. That`s appreciated! Robert

Robert and Scott,
You've done it again! Your collaborations just keep on gleaming more and more with each one that's posted. This one shines!
The write, arrangement and production are great. Robert your vocals are really confident these days and Scott, you make skilful guitar playing sound so very easy.
Very, very effective work (again)!
Noel
