That's exactly what came to mind. laugh

To me, it's a bit like doing a cover - you can either be true to the original, or chart your own course.

And if you're going to do your own thing, it's far better to commit fully to doing it your way, instead of doing a version that's neither one nor the other. That sort of thing makes no one happy. wink


Music is all about choice and elimination. You test things then you eliminate and chose. That's exactly what I did for the solo section about what sound to pick.
Moreover, having contributors to your piece of music is also allowing other universe to blend with yours. And for that I am grateful for Torrey for his trust and open mind.
None of Torrey or I felt like we were not respecting the original. As a matter of fact he displayed his satisfaction in his introductive post about this version (solo included) and I did the same. So we have here both participants happy about the collaboration.

You are perfectly entitled to your opinion though, that's the beauty of a forum where everyone can share his view, and I thank you for that.
