Bob,
Smooth melancholic tune. Excellent set of lyrics, music bed and vocals.
This is great:
"Felt the space of January
Like ashes on the radar
He was painting all the words
By the bright light of a blackstar"
Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. I usually travel every year to Catskills region. This tune reminded me that I have to visit an old friend before snow falls.

Excellent work Bob.
Especially the usage of AmbientBalladSpacey guitar.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2023 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Really good, Bob. Love the atmospherics. Perfect complement to your vocal. Reference to Rick Danko grabbed my attention right off. Man, what a singer he was.
Regards,
Leon

Boy this song brought up a lot of memories. The band was one of my favorite groups. Reading the stories of Big Pink from Levon Helms biography to what like was like during their time in Woodstock. Loved the song. Well done

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track
