Thanks for sharing these tracks Jim

Although Walk with me is nicely played and put together, my lasting impression is of a track which lacks variety.
Over 5 mins of an identical chord structure with not even a verse/chorus variation to break the pattern puts a lot of strain on the other aspects of the track (solos, breaks, lyrical story,…) if it is to hold the listener’s attention.

I like some of the lyrical effects (the unexpected internal rhyme in the last line of each verse) but other parts sound clunky « the wheels of proGRESS ? ».

I much preferred I know it’s true, with its Chris Rea like soft-rock groove.
Like other commentators, I also appreciate your vocal clarity, even if I detect a slight Noel Coward like exaggerated delivery here and there.

Lyrically and in your interpretation, it really sounds that this song comes from the heart. But for all that, I find it hard to put my finger on the exact message in the song :
- true love will outlast all of life’s changes
- it’s impossible to understand kids
- where are the kids going wrong (or right ?)
- all of the above

Maybe you’re taking on too many different themes all in one piece, which is causing the confusion.

Also, and this is my last complaint ! as a non-Yammy man, I didn’t know what a CVP509 is and had to web search it.
