Have to tell you the reason: We were to have a reparation of the plumming system in our City House in Helsinki ! As we could not fly down to Spain to Marianico, we started to search for a summer cottage at a radius of 150-200 km:s from Helsinki, and finally after having seen at least 20 different places we found our little cosy cabin in Kiikala, Salo some 93 km:s from our city home ! ...and naturally we´ve lived there up til now mostly completely out of computers and other electronic devices than our mobile phones ! So, my friends, AS I am only starting to finish new material I thought I would post this older tune "Summer Is Gone" that I did write for quite a time ago ! It deals with the summer ending up here in the north and the crispy chilling fall coming in to replace it slowly but surely ! My apologizes for not having saved the lyrics separately but I think or at least I hope that you´ll be able to detect the words from the tune ! No info about the instros or styles either since they were on a computer that cracked up before saving ! Cheers Dani http://app.box.com/s/p7nnc67pwxoxhiw3nvuaoxmbm3542lmz And here is a picture of the view from our new summer cabin named Tallero, which means peace amongst the Pine trees ! http://app.box.com/s/86du17pzoxcwkdaxqveu4luwycz5pfbf Last edited by dani48; 09/14/20 05:50 AM.

Harmonies, and everything slotted together perfectly. Great backing, really enjoyable listen. Nice, really.

Only constructive comment--I would have carried out the I-IV vamp to a fade at the end. Thanks for posting!

Beautiful harmonies and you've really captured a sunny, summery feel. I can just picture sun, clouds, hiking or picnicking on a grassy hillside.
