Di is right. It IS like a warm breeze.
A great listen. Your mixes are always pro sounding.
fj I agree. Fantastic guitars. Loved it.

'Al-David'... Mmm...very nice! Has a laid-back, 'journeying' feel to it, as though we were on a cruise ship sailing in and out of exotic ports-of-call. The Real Style has a sensuous sound that is sweetly amplified by the background nylon guitar track, which is so expressive that it sounded like a solo instrument performance. For you and Ms. Di, I hope your Christmas and New Year's Day celebrations are meaningful, and memorable  . Hi Loren ... Thank you so much for the very, very nice comments. Your reviews are always such a pleasure to read. I liked your cruise ship analogy! We had a very nice Christmas - thank you. Hope you did, too. We we gathered at our granddaughter's house? Our family is small. We've buried three of our children and the several grandchildren - except the one where we celebrated last night - live quiet distantly from us. Our daughter and her husband, our granddaughter and her husband, and Di & I comprised the entire gathering. But we had a very good time. Santa was good to all of us! Wishing you well and a wonderful 2022. Alan & Di

i really like it -- reminded me a little of the Eric Clapton unplugged songs HI Bob ... Thank you so much. And the acoustic Clapton reference put a big smile on my face! Thanks again. And wishing you a wonderful 2022. Alan

Hi Alan, thrown together in 3 or 4 hours? That's the time I need for sitting down in front of my PC, run BIAB and start thinking alone  ... Man, you really know how to come up with most loveable songs - your talent seems to know no bounds. I think Di caught the feel and nailed it with that title. Really so lovely. All the best to Di and you - we'll keep in contact. Stefan Hey You Two ... Basierend auf dein letzten E-Mail scheint es, als hätten du und Maha ein ruhiges, aber wunderschönes Weihnachtsfest gehabt. Ich habe mich sehr gefreut, das gelesen zu haben! I appreciate your very nice comments so much! Most of my compositions take 6- 20 collective hours of effort, although some have taken weeks, even months. And yes, I enjoy reading your emails! Thus, I am sure we will remain in contact. Best to you and the lovely Maha ... Alan & Di

Alan,
This is so nice! Nobody around here arranges these type of tracks any better than you! Its so full of feeling and lovely sound textures! It's great to see you active in the forum! Thanks, Torrey Torrey, You are always so generous with your comments regarding my compositions. Thank you very much!!! I wish I could be more active on the forums. But Di's declining health keeps me away much more often than in previous times. But, she is my priority and I'm okay with that. Wishing your 2022 is the best ever. Alan

Very pretty tune Alan!!! You are the master of the BIAB instrumentals!! I would add a bit more verb, but then again, I'm a bit of a reverb addict . Mix is very good as is!! Happy New Year!! Take care. Greg

Di's description is spot on for traditionally built houses in Australia - the hall was a straight line from front to back door and was referred to as a breeze way...vents above both doors to provide air flow when the doors needed to be closed.
It was to catch the cool breeze or to generate air movement inside on stifling days.
This does sound warmly familiar, smooth and comfy.
Nicely done Alan.
Cheers
