We agree as we have listened to and enjoyed his music.

Al has already quoted that but we will join in. Strong!

Cool backstory to go with story lyric.

Several listens are needed to absorb all the nuances of the story
and the production.

Excellent vocal/guitar performances, arrangement and mix (nice snare pop).

A rich story song taken to the max! Janice said she was visualizing
epic scenes from Game Of Thrones.

Much enjoyed,

J&B






I had to look up Jeff Bridges to see who you were talking about. I wasn't aware he was a recording artist. Learn something new every day around here. I'm glad you like that same line as Al.

I too watched the Game of Thrones after the series was totally finished. So I was able to binge it from start to end. I've always been a fan of such fantasy stories, especially when the plot is good and requires some thought on the part of the observer. So naturally, Black Sails fell right into this same category. I hated that it was only 4 seasons long. There is a series that is several seasons about Treasure Island and I might have to give that a shot too.

Thank you for listening to the song. And I think you are right. It takes a few listens to get all the things that are there in this song.

Glad you enjoyed this.
