The song is just that. Evocative. That grungy middle section with fiddly bits was an interesting addition.

Kinda makes me wonder whether you should just release the inner beast and go full on rock for a while? I mean there's been shades of harder edged music in your compositions before.

Nother fine piece by the troubadour himslef. The middle section hit me like a hammer. Shouldn't work but it does! Nice one Ray.

It's an underlooked thing I think sometimes in music. Why one band is 'great' and another is just 'good'. I think that is why Rory Gallagher is seen as a great of blues rock, but yet they don't often mention his vocals. I takes music another 10/20% to a better place.

Ray, another lovely piece. It is a lovely vocal with a spotlight shining on it - great reverb/echo? Great lyrics too. And yeah, letting rip in the middle... why not? Sounds great.

Beautiful, Ray.  Love the changes in feel from acoustic guitar to heavy electric to an exquisite piano finish.  Brilliant.
