Yep, and a bit toward a melding of Jefferson Airplane and the Dead to our ears.
Airplane in ambiance and the Dead with that bounce in the rhythm.

We really liked the write and particularly:

"I grew old you pretended not to notice taking you down dead end dirt roads please find enclosed it sticks in my throat my request not that I`m owed"

Your vocal delivers the whole feel very effectively and, man, that guitar is wonderful.

You guys have found a great niche on the showcase!

Enjoyed it.

J&B,
I can hear that Grateful Dead feel now that you mention it.
I tried to give the lyrics a little of the period language- thanks for singling out those lines and Scott`s fine guitar on this.
The Spirit Level plan to keep filling up our little niche!

I can really feel the Celtic influences you mentioned and also I can hear Thin Lizzy, especially in Scott's guitar sound and playing. You have found your own style, I'm just amazed how much creative and very productive collaboration there's on this forum. I'm already waiting for your new songs smile

Janne,
I figured you`d pick up on the Celtic rock influences ( I never heard much Thin Lizzy for some reason so will check them out). You won`t need to wait long to hear from us again- we have more coming.
Thanks for your listen and comments.

Robert
