I had Easy Rider-like visuals in my mind all the way through this. Excellent instrumental all around and definitely worthy of riding into the sunset to! A lovely tribute.

Hi Scott! Firstly, my condolences to you and yours on the unexpected passing of your brother - clearly loved and a friend to many.
I loved the guitars you arranged here that have the sound of motorcycles screaming away with the doppler effect as they disappear into the distance. Very fitting! Andrew

That is a lovely tribute.
It was easy for us to experience the sound of sadness. And to feel the motion of the Harley.
Excellent playing, band, arrangement and mix.
May he rest in peace.
