A GREAT listen. Y'all should be struttin' proud.

Thanks fj,
for my part - it's a case of being lifted by the company.
It came together fairly quickly and Scott's mix made the most of the available elements.


Cheers

Hi Janice | Bud,

It is really excellent. The effects of the double voice and the superb guitar solo make this composition something very pleasant. What I admire about you is the quality of your compositions, nothing is left to chance. I appreciated.

This collaboration is really unexpected.
Quite different personalities of rayc, Scott and Janice are mixed with to create a complex sound.
I found a special blues there that I hadn't even thought of.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Shigeki for checking out the song. Really appreciate your comments.

Hey Marty Thanks for the awesome comments. I really enjoyed working with Janice an Ray on this song.

Seems like a lot of work has gone into this one.

Well done to all involved.

Thanks for checking out the song Peter. Glad you liked it.

The atmosphere really stands out for me . Love that song. Scott done himself proud with that guitar sound. As others have said, fabulous collaboration. Janice matches the guitar mood with her ethereal vocal. Splendid show indeed!

Well the Blues is certainly Something when performed like this.
Give me a comfortable chair under a shady palm tree by the ocean , hand me a cold frothy Budweiser (or whatever you drink in the States) , then play me this wonderful track and I am in Nirvana !
All around fantastic ,music and vox ,this is great.
cheers

Excellent collaboration, more than sum of its parts.
Name David Lynch comes to my mind... such a cinematic experience.
Story is simple, told in few words, but they are all very meaningful.
Nicely effected guitars and Scott's playing is really atmospheric
Hauntingly beautiful vocal performance, the harmonies are great and the ending effect is wonderful.
And what a mix, so airy and warm, yet oozing sadness in every sound. The blend of Ray's bass and the baritone guitar is especially powerful.

The heavy delay on the guitar gave it a bit of a psychedelic edge. Ray’s lyrics and bass playing are standout and the whole package including Bud’s input on mix and mastering have created an excellent end product. Very much enjoyed. Tom


Stress removal is great! We both felt that psychedelic edge ... I called Janice "Grace" all though the video work smile

Thanks for ALL you said Tom!

I think you have to perform more together. It was a surprise to read about this cohab and to hear the result, but a beautiful one!
More words I cannot find to say how I appreciate this, but I did. I think maybe I'm a bit jealous(?). But with a smile. You earned it!

Hans,
Thank you.
Yes, it is a cynical truth isn't it?
The soon to be posted video will amplify the meaning if you need more.

WoW! Blown Away! First I love the vocal call back. And then the lyrics are well written and philosophical. Then the sweet sounds of the guitars. And what a solid master! And last that fade out is inspired.

So well done from start to the very end!
