Well we have to pedal our bikes  but we can certainly appreciate that nice and open and flowy vibe. Makes us want to head out on an adventure! Those stonez RT's and your Les Paul are hittin' the note. REALLY good. Great drums too Scott. Excellent! J&B

Scott
This one sounds very good. Really nice work on all the elements.
One of your best instrumentals.
Peter Thanks Peter for checking out the song. Really appreciate your comments. Glad you liked the song. The change is guitar voice is cool though the 2nd seemed a fair bit louder than the 1st. You've an easily recognized style Scott...a more relaxed Hank B Marvin? Thanks Ray. Yes the middle section was a little louder. Bit more compression in that section due to me playing with the gain on the amps. Glad you liked the song.

Groovy and laid back. I like whatever that rhythmic sound is that comes in around :40 (and later). Another nice one, Scott.

Good job! Not exactly my style, but who cares about that. The performance is great, the writing is great ... enjoyed it, it's good to broaden my mind every now and then, haha. Especially when it's this well done. Congrats :-)

Nice instrumental, Scott. Interesting and well played throughout. Really enjoyed it. Regards, Leon Thanks Leon. Glad you liked the song. Appreciate the comments Hi Scott,
This is a cool rocker you've made! In a certain way the Californian version of Rawhide (just kidding...). Very nice rhythm and cool use of the synth. And of course your so recognizable lead guitar. No doubt it is Scottish!
Nice day, Hans Thanks Hans. Glad you liked the song. Appreciate the comments. Haha. My brother plays Winter golf in Florida while I enjoy the changing seasons in the north. I like the bike. YES!! I really like your guitar/synth experiment, Scott. Man, I'd love your guitars anywhere and with anyone. Very creative and smooth. Thanks Marty A couple of years ago went down and spent sometime cruising the country side. The desert is such a beautiful place in the spring. Glad you liked the song.

A really neat instrumental.
Great work on the axe, comes through really clean.
Nice mix, and the rhythm section sits perfectly.

Hi Scott.
This is my kind of easy-listening music. You've done a really great job. You've created a great melody and your arrangement of it is awesome!
It's an easy and confident two thumbs up from me.
Love it!
All the best, Noel

Brother goes in style, eh, Scott? Yeah but think of all that awesome music that wouldn't be getting made! Classic 80's vocal rips.

Super groove.
Outstanding guitar chops.

Two thumbs up
I got banned from Weight Watchers for dropping a bag of M&Ms on the floor. It was the best game of Hungry Hippos I've ever seen!

Excellent choice of acoustic and electric instruments, synths work very well. And the guitar playing is the cherry on the cake, such a beautiful melody, could be from an 80's cruising movie.

Very cool production Scott! The guitar is great. Enjoyed.
Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks Rob and Anne-Marie. Really appreciate the comments. Glad you liked the song. A nice ride! Enjoyed that. The wide open sound of Western landscapes is one of my favorite musical feels. Thanks Mark for checking out the song. Glad you liked it. Hi Scott C,
It's a very nice instrumental composition that you offer us. I love the sound of your solo guitar that makes me dream of wide open spaces and the musical notes associated with them. I appreciated. Well done. thank for the sharing.
Best regard Derochette alias JaniJackFlash Thanks Jani for checking out the song. Glad you liked it.

Scott,
Nice sound! The usage of the guitar with two different characters is wonderful. I agree with floyd, that's a great idea to export the Realdrum Chart to midi and accented with Presonus Impact. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

I like that. Of course I'm a guitar guy so, why wouldn't I!
It's got a bit of a spaghetti westerns vibe but, with a fresh modern twist. The art work fits the music well.

Those stonez RT's and your Les Paul are hittin' the note. REALLY good. Great drums too Scott. Excellent! J&B Thanks Janice and Bud for checking out the song. I found the new 2022 RT to be my favorite version upgrade. Will be using them lots. Your comments are very much appreciated and glad you liked the song. Groovy and laid back. I like whatever that rhythmic sound is that comes in around :40 (and later). Another nice one, Scott. Thanks Scott for checking out the song. The rhythm track that coming is at 40 is done with a Minilab II and Arturia Lab V. It is an arpeggio pattern played across the chords in the song.
