Yeah, Scott. Like the name says. (Just in time for Halloween)
I liked the background level because for my tastes it supported the essence of the guitar sounds. A lot of pure expression, there. Solid string striking.

Scott,
Really like your tone and effects and playing in this. Might be my favorite of yours. Cool stuff...

fj Thanks Floyd. Glad you liked the song. Gave the backtrack a bump after yours and Ray's suggestion. NOW the true coolness of it comes across - fabulous. Thanks for the help on the mix. I appreciated it. NOW the true coolness of it comes across - fabulous. Thanks for checking out the song. Good to hear from you David. Glad you liked the song

Well done on the guitar playing Scott! I like the piece and its laid back style. It something to sit back a listen to after a busy day. You can crawl up on a couch and lose yourself in this piece. Keep coming up with gems like this one!
I agree that hearing aids are a problem in mixing. I have them also. I still haven't found a great solution to getting the proper settings in them to but I have adjusted to them. I find that I can now hear those high frequencies and upper mid ranges and were driving me crazy in the mix. I had one piece that the cymbals were so loud they drowned the mix out but to my ears it sounded good (that was without the hearing aids).

Wow, what an ethereal melody and tone. You guitar tiptoes lightly over the backing tracks to produce such a pleasing composition.

A very nice instrumental song.
Gentle, delicate guitar work delivers the piece beautifully.

Not what I expected from the title.  Interesting listen. I didn't initially grab my ear, but it grew on me the second through.

Hi Scott.
This is a very restful presentation that seriously soothes the soul.
It's Sunday morning here in Melbourne, it's been raining overnight and the day looks a little bit gloomy and overcast... believe it or not your instrumental is a perfect fit and a terrific mood enhancer for the ambience the morning has created.
I enjoyed where you took me.
All the best,
Noel

Scott,
Very nice playing and nice Tone!
A typical Scott sound.
I also agree with Ray and Dave about the backing levels.
And I agree with floyd.
Really enjoyed your haunting melody... Cool ending...
Best regards.

Hi Scott,
this is excellent!
Very nice playing and I love the tone a lot. Creates a very special atmosphere. Like Ray mentioned the backing track might have been a bit louder for me, too, but maybe that might have even spoiled the vibe...
It's just great the way it is !'

Thanks for checking out the song I appreciated it Not what I expected from the title. Interesting listen. I didn't initially grab my ear, but it grew on me the second through. Thanks David Yes I started the song out quietly and tried to build through the second verse and finish softly again. Was struggling with my hearing aids and the mix with the head phones. Hi Scott.

Thanks Stefan Glad you liked the song. Yes I was trying to change the effect of the different verses. Lost a little in the translation :-) will work on the backtrack volumes.
