Very clear and rich sounding tune, Kenny! Works well as instrumental, but i'm sure if someone would write lyrics and sing this, it could move to another level! The "chorus" is very catchy! Absolutely fantastic playing! Enjoyable listening!

Very cool & really clean recording. I love the changes and that little rising melody you repeat is super cool!
Rock On!

Excellent stuff Kenny. Bring the drums up a little bit more in the mix.

Greeny

Smashing. Some nice Macca-esque melodic bass would work a treat on this.

Thanks for listening and commenting.  I had and still have higher hopes for this
but had to create a shorter version before I gave up on it.  I have longer versions
with and without the rising guitar parts that may be more vocal friendly.

Kari,  That's what I was hoping for.  I started some lyrics but wasn't happy
with them.  Plus I'd rather have a better writer singer collaborate.

Hook.  I did that rising guitar part several times on a longer version but
I  kept getting a buzz or something on every take after the first ... so I copied
the first take which just happened right.

Chunk.  They did sound better louder but I couldn't make up my mind if I wanted them
so I kept them low until I figure out where it's going ... there's actually a bass in there
that's mixed even lower because it's so simple and boring.

Tim.  I was thinking this needed a Greeny type bass on it ... really!!!

Wow what  a beautiful acoustic instrumental Kenny! I hear a lot of potential with this song. I hope you keep it in your sights and get back to it soon!
