James,

This shows off BIAB nicely. I was struck by how Elton-John-ish the piano RT was.
A good mix.

Nice sounding piano instrumental! I agree with Floyd about the Elton John vibe! Good job!

Thanks, Torrey

Pretty instrumental. I got the Elton John vibe as well when the song started. Well done

Man, I wish there was a blindfold test asking who wrote this wonderful piece of music. I'd get it right every time, James. You have a gloriously unique style and I would instantly hear you speak-singing some of your inspirational lyrics over this.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Floyd, Torrey, Scott and Anne-Marie: thanks! Yes, the Elton John vibe is evident, particulary (for me) in the accented notes - which I liked, because they carry the melody ... and which he uses in the same manner when he himself plays the piano. Glad you liked it :-)

Marty: way too kind!!! I initially actually thought of adding the Hail Mary lyrics, on top of it (hence the title, "Full of Grace"), but eventually opted to let the music speak for itself, for once :-) You make me smile, with every single invariably kind comment you make about my musical efforts. Thanks so much!

James,
had I heard it anywhere and on any platform I've have picked you within the 1st ten bars. You have a signature chord realtionship that doesn't invade and take over but pops up its head here n there saying...yes, it's me.
Excellent choices - the guitars do their job supporting the piano very well.
I think I can even hear a part spoken, part sung melody.


Cheers

Thanks, Ray! It's always great, for me, when a musician of your own calibre likes what I try to offer. I'm glad I somehow have a distinctive sound :-) Thanks so much for listening and for being so kind as to comment, too!
