This is probably inaccurate, and maybe even inappropriate, but this had a Native American kind of vibe to it. Very nice changes in the rhythm section and a floaty lead to glue it all together. I really enjoyed listening.

Hi Scott,
Sometimes you have to reach back into the bag! I haven't heard this song before if you posted it when you first did it. But you've really made the guitar sing! I hear shades of Dire Straits (Mark Knopfler) at times, kind of reminiscent of Brothers in Arms. Thanks for posting, I enjoyed the listen!

Hi Scott.
Another fine creation to add to your songbook.
I love the tone of your guitar and your playing is immensely lyrical. It's so easy to sit back and listen to this.
I enjoyed letting your music create images in my mind.
Thank you, Noel Thanks so much for the awesome comments Noel. Really appreciated them. Scott,
This is beautiful... Excellent playing and mix. Lovely melody.
Bob Thanks Bob for checking out the song. Glad you liked it

Cap'n beat us to it. This is very cinematic and would be a great tune for the film sync libraries.
Your mesmerizing guitar (melody and tone) and arrangement opens up images of beautiful far reaching vistas. Kinds zooms the listener across the landscape.
Well performed and produced!

I'm more than a bit late to the party.  Good melodic guitar lead kept the song interesting. The drums went in unexpected directions, but - to my surprise - it worked. Parts were definitely cinematic.

I hear shades of Dire Straits (Mark Knopfler) at times, kind of reminiscent of Brothers in Arms. Thanks for posting, I enjoyed the listen! Thanks Bawb for checking out the song. This is a new song. For the last year I have been working on remixes of old songs and collaborations. Decided to see if I could come out with some new melodies. Glad you liked it. Scott
Very nice. Pretty playing throughout, with your trademark sound and a nice balance of instruments.
Good work.

J&B Thanks Janice and Bud for checking out the song. Very much appreciate the lovely comments. I'm more than a bit late to the party.  Good melodic guitar lead kept the song interesting. The drums went in unexpected directions, but - to my surprise - it worked. Parts were definitely cinematic. Thanks David for checking out the song. The drums were very much an experiment as there were not real drum tracks for this style. Glad you liked the song. You have some very tasty guitar sounds on this song plus a haunting melody. Thank you Tyden for checking out my song. Really appreciate the comments and really glad you liked it..

I almost missed this one and I'm glad that I didn't miss it!
Scott, you make that axe talk! Super clean tone and outstanding chops. Super mix and backing tracks.
Loved it!
