Peter & Leon (and Janice),
A nice folk song. Appropriate backing. Harmonica works well. The tambourine in a good choice.
Leon as a great voice for this style. On my speakers, the vocal "jumps out at me" every few words.
Janice's harmonies sound good.
Nice.
fj Thanks floyd. Can't see anything obvious on the vocal track -(Vic also comments on the issue). Hopefully a one off. Peter

Peter, Leon and Janice.
I love this groove and it suits the lyrics so well.
From the very first chord, it was easy to hear that this was going to be a thoroughly enjoyable musical journey.
I honestly don't know how you all keep on producing song after song, year after year, and always maintaining such a high standard.
Excellence once again!
All the best, Noel.
P.S. I love the picture on Soundcloud. Such a peaceful view.

Very nice work from all. I don't often get a chance to hear good folk music. That harmonica sounds like a Dylan song. Makes me feel like walking down into the woods here and setting by my creek and just watching the water flow. https://youtu.be/et9ATXBW9HM <<<<< this is one of the creeks on my land. Thanks Herb - creek looks nice. Peter Hi Peter and Leon,
I just listend to a new song from Floyd and then yours. It is very good and in a way as understated as his song. It gave me a smile. You both did a very nice job with this 'sweet' song (I don't mean the lyrics, they were about hard labour...)
I really enjoyed it, Hans Thanks Hans appreciate the comments. Peter

How can you not like this. It has a soothing vibe that draws me in and the vocal harmonies say "stay awhile"
Beautiful!

Peter, Leon & Janice, There`s an innocence about the song I really like; a style rarely heard now, with hopeful lyrics that had me rooting for the factory worker`s dream, fine vocals and a good simple arrangement. A very enjoyable surprise- well done you three!
Robert

Excellent tune guys. Loved the intro. Super vocal Lyon and some very lovely harmonies Janice. Cool country tune. I agree with Herb the harmonica was a nice add. Well played Peter. Guitar was cool too.. Thanks Scott. Peter

Janice, Pter and Leon ...
A classic Dylan sound that's seldom heard any more. It's a "comfortable" listen - relaxing and pensive. Everytrhing is so good. And you can't go wrong with anything Janice contributes to a song. Thanks for a terrific listen. Wishing all of you the very best. Take care ...
Alan Alan appreciate the Dylan compliment. Thanks Peter

Peter, Leon and Janice:
Very nicely done! Really like the write, and your production choices give it a nice, traditional 60’s type folk song—so mission accomplished there. Sweet melody accentuated with some pretty harmonies. Well done, folks! This is a good ‘un.
Regards to all,
Deej

This is totally different than your previous songs but just as good. Super blues harp! Everything about this is spot on.
A nice change of pace! I liked this one.

Cool folk. I could image Pete Seeger belting this out. Well done all - it sounds legit. Appreciate that Ray. Peter Your song was really easy to listen to, and the lyrics painted such a perfect visual and helped set the mood going into the song. Thanks for sharing! Thanks Ember Peter

Sound exactly what I'd expect from this genre: Lyrics, vocals, harmony and arrangement spot on.
Jangly goodness. Thanks David A wonderful composition and recording. I love its simplicity (which goes with the subject perfectly). Everything well played. Lovely vocal harmonies, especially on the outro. Nice work to everyone involved, including the band. Thanks for the nice comments. Peter

Lovely song. I like the simplicity of the lyric.
The vocals are good but seem a bit up and down in volume so maybe needs a play around with compression. Vocals also (to my ears) seem too separated from the reverb and eq in the music.
I still like it though.
Vic Thanks Vic Peter Peter & Leon (and Janice),
Oldie but goody. It seems to be an arrangement of Stephen Collins Foster's work to me. Harmonica, vocals and harmonies, everything is very comfortable. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Peter

Lyrics paint a beautiful landscape and then captures nicely the contrast to the noisy city streets, something I can relate to. Music and melody sway gently along the folk story. I was surprised to hear harmonica solo instead of electric guitar, but it works really well. Also the electric guitar plays nice riffs. Great vocals and Janice's backing harmonies really sounds like "sighing through the trees".
Janne Appreciate the support and review Janne. Peter That was great! Nice fresh sound with a tinge of nostalgia.
Enjoyed the listen. Band is well mixed and the vocals pop just enough.
Well Done!
moto
Thanks a lot. Peter

Janne Hi PeterF, Leon and Janice
What I admire here is your collaboration in the development of this composition. The lyrics are superb. I love the harmonica and the vocals doubled to different octaves which make for a great composition. Well done.
Kindly regard Derochette aliasJaniJackFlash Thanks for mentioning my small part in this! Janice
