Bob,
A very dream-like write. Which makes sense - it's a dream song!
The baritone guitar suits the subject matter, too.
This could easily be in the background of any number of current shows on Netflix or Amazon. (OA would be a good one for it...)
Good mix (as always).

Poetic and non-specific, very evocative.
I liked the subtle build as you brought in the instruments.
Nicely done, as usual.

I recall Neil Young doing a song called Albuquerque. In fact I could hear him covering your version.
Nice relaxed mood and immediately familiar. Good choice of instruments and nicely performed.
Very enjoyable.

Bob, I read the lyrics, listened to the tune and had very particular thought in mind to my response, but as soon as I scrolled to the first reply, FJ's post caught my eyes. He wrote exactly what I was feeling This was wayyy strange. A very calming, dream like song indeed. Nicely put together and performed. Loved the tremolo guitar choice. Thank you for sharing! Misha.

Bob,
Your vocal carries the feeling. A dream that gets to you is powerful song inspiration!
I like the repetition in the lyrics and of course that tremolo guitar.
I also hear a little Neil Young in this... and also the kind of song Emmylou Harris chose for Wrecking Ball.
Robert

I always like it when you use that tremolo guitar, it is a good fit for your sound I think.
Great as always, Bob, I'm a fan!

Another cool track Bob!! Very textural. Rolls along so nicely with that Brent baritone guitar feeding the rhythm as it goes. Nicely done!! Take care. Greg
