Man, it's a good day when I get to hear new tunes by 2 of my favorite musical interpreters of life, you & Mario. You consistently have such incredible tone and taste. Not sure what the NumTwo means since bathroom designations won't apply here, but this tune is a true example of touching on the most primal human need of entertainment. The kind of splender in music that is best heard with closed eyes.

Great band.
Great intro.
The effects really keep this captivating.
Lots of variety, and everything nicely rounded. A great instrumental.
Thanks for checking out the song. Thanks for the comment on the effects. These devices are in a constant state of flux trying to find a new better sound. Glad you liked the song. Hi Scott.
This is fantastic listening.
I'm a huge fan of compound time signatures and 12/8 is one of the best!
I love your playing. The sound you created is excellent and the melody you composed really travels along enjoyably. Because I'm not a guitarist, I have no idea what effects you played and what effects you added using plugins. What I can say, though, is that the final result mesmerized me.
I thoroughly loved this journey.
All the best,
Noel Thanks Noel for the awesome review, I too love the 12/8 signature. Really glad you liked the song.

Hi Scott.
Good heavy background. Moves along nicely.
I wondered half way through what effect it would have if you dirtied up the guitar a little for variation in sound.

Nice lead guitar, touch & tone, fine arrangement too.
My only problem is the acoustic guitar strumming in 4/4 (362 Guitar Acoustic Strumming)
It's clashing with the 12/8 feel of the song... Thanks for checking out the song. Good catch on the clashing acoustic. I went back and isolated the track and it certainly is playing along in its own song. This was a late add to the song and not an original RT from the style. Will keep an eye out for that next time. Glad you liked the song. Scott,
A nice instrumental. Beautiful clean tone, and clean playing to match.
Synths are cool.
Good mix.
fj Thanks Floyd for checking out the song. Really glad you liked it. Thanks for the comments on the mix. I have been putting in quite a bit of time trying to get more skilled in the mixing and mastering area. Lots to learn and lots of fun doing it..

Scott,
Lovely instrumental tune!
Your usual guitar tone reminiscent of The Shadows is really great and fits perfectly with the melody.
The tempo that can be taken in 6/8 time signature makes this song even more wonderful.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hey Scott, I really love this. Those keyboards are cool. Did the Gretsch turn into a Strat later? The sound changed and it fooled me.

Your melodic playing is really outstanding on this Scott and the fx are very cool.
Our midi knowledge is zero but we can certainly appreciate how well all of your tracks work together.
This has a very cinematic sound and it oughta be playing while credits roll on a great series.
Excellent!
J&B
Thanks Janice and Bud for checking out the song. The midi files have been a nice add as it gives me some time to rest my hands. Really glad you liked the song. Scott,
This sounds great! Love the track selection and the Gretsch sounds sublime.
Bob Thanks Bob Really appreciate the comments. Glad you liked the song.

The kind of splender in music that is best heard with closed eyes. Thanks Marty for checking out the song and very appreciative of your comments. My song naming this year was result of a bit of a creative streak. I ended up coming up with the base for four songs in the space of a couple of hours. Then when I started playing with the new styles in BIAB 2022 I had about four or five more the next couple of days. I got a chuckle from the reference to the song name for NumTwo. I have went back an revisited my other songs and will hopefully find something appropriate for them. So glad you liked the song. Hi Scott.

Vic Thanks Vic for checking out the song. For the last couple of years I have been focusing more on the production, mixing and mastering of my songs to try and get them more balanced and sounding better. Really glad you liked the song

Hello Scott,
I almost missed your beautiful song! I now see it's nearly impossible to go on holidays. Than this happens!
A marvellous solo you played in it. I liked the rhythm of the song/drums. At first I thought something like Bloc-Head said in his post, but that wasn't the case when listening the song a second time.
All the best,
Hans

Another beautiful Scott tune with nicely rising melody, lovely guitar playing together with effects and all those small ornaments. Enjoyed the chord progression, it has nice spring mood.

Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki for checking out the song. I think most of my tone comes from my delay pedal. Really glad you liked the song.
