Scott,
Rhythm change and tone change are interesting.
Your guitar in the slow part sounds really beautiful.
The melody is simple, and it looks like it will have great lyrics soon.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

First of all, love the slide playing during the first part and the outro! Perfect intonation and great tone.
Second part is neat too, nice melody, and cool when you bring in the wha.
It works well as it is an an instrumental, and I see where you were going with the change of styles. Could also work as two separate songs as Mario mentioned.
Good stuff, Scott, and great to see you with a new one! Thanks Dave. Really glad you liked the song. Pushed the settings quite a bit on some of the effects. Excellent guitar playing Scott and I like how you incorporated 2 styles in 1 song. I look at style 1 as the intro and outro and style 2 everything else.
Very creative. Thanks BT. Glad you liked the song. I have been enjoying your instrumentals as well Yeah, that's a cool feature and you used it so well here, Scott. HA, an appropriate title for sure. Yet you not only used the slide guitar, but also gave the sense of someone sliding from their goal, then picking it up with the change in style. Man, I really enjoy your playing. Wah-wah is cool too. Then the character slides back into a comfortable ending. Great taste throughout! Thanks Marty for checking out the song. Glad you got a chuckle out of the title. Really appreciate your comments.

Scott, This one covered a lot of different bases. My favorite part was the slide. Perfect intonation. Kind of a Harrison style. Nicely done. I enjoyed it, Tom

Hi Scott,
You did a wonderful job on the guitar.
Even 3 wonderful jobs, two on the different styles, and then the wah wah in the middle. I never heard you plaing that before!
I think it is not always easy to merge styles that are very different. as Mario wrote, you could easily have made this two songs.
But on the other hand, now you made an enjoyable song with two pleasant surprises in it. Starting slowly, going up and sliding back again.
I enjoyed it a lot!
Hans
Thank you Hans. Thanks for checking out the song. Your comments are very much appreciated. Glad you liked it. scott.
talent all the way and i love the thought you put into this mate. great paceing too.
a very emotive song. nice tempo changes.
i hear this i hope you dont me saying as playing along with a documentary film showing people para sailing and gliders also.
what a guitar player !..seriously.
happiness.
om Thanks om for the kind words. Really appreciate you checking out the song and the kind words. Thanks Nigel for checking out the song. Glad you liked it..

Hey Scott...great variety in melody, styles and tone...as usual your stellar professional sound and stylings are showcased here...the first and last segments almost have a Hawaiian flavor (it's the slide) and the more classic rock ballad middle is really ripe with great tone and a cool melody...I'm a fan (but you know that!) Thanks Dan for checking out the song. Really glad you liked it. Hi Scott love the tone and mix enjoyed very much thanks for sharing, Eric. Thanks Eric. Good to hear from you. Gald you liked the song. Very nice tune. I like the style changes, definitely makes the song interesting, you have used BIAB very creatively by choosing styles that work together very well. The guitar tone changes are enjoyable. The chord progression and the melody are also beautiful. And of course your talented guitar playing is something to admire.
Janne Thanks Janne Really appreciate your comments. thanks for checking out the song. Great guitar tone and playing, and a good idea with different styles, although I know from experience that BIAB doesn't really support it as it should (yes, I opened a ticket for it). The styles you chose work well together. Personally, I wouldn't change your guitar tone that often, first to keep the song more consistent and second because I really like the tone you started with. A lot Thanks B.D. for checking out the song. Most of my instrumentals are experimental pieces that are used to setup up songs for my work with Robert in Spirit Level. Glad you liked the song. Intro is nice peaceful guitar melody. I like the transition into the peppy and sprite section. The end is satisfying with the return of the initial guitar part. Thanks Scott. Really glad you checked out the song. Glad you liked it as well..

Scott, this was on my list for some time. Sorry late for the party, but I am glad I fished it before it swam away. Very neat style fusion. Started as funky Hawaiiana and "slided" to so many interesting places. Excellent work on composition and guitar playing! Good mix & listens well. No complaints Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Hi Scott.
I agree the change could be smoother but it's a fine piece anyhow.
Lovely play and tone on the guitar.
