Bluesberry, your song is so freaking epic.
It's a sonic adventure of grandiose proportions.

It's a modern legend, a trip and a half, and the outro has moved me to tears on more than one occasion.

Back when you first posted this, I realized this collaborative opera will be a life-changing experience.

Excellent bump among all the Picasso bumpings...

Can't believe I hadn't commented on this! Prog to the max and amazingly well done, BB - loved all the different bits and how you were able to chain them together so seamlessly. That true talent.

 Excellent music Dave and like you say a terrific poem it's great you got all that sound from the reading of it .....a rocker

Love your acoustic work in the opening section. Has a really sunny feel...then the heavyness kicks in with that BB riffage and tasty synth, and we're off on an unpredictable prog journey...then you bring us back with an intimate final verse...exausting but so effective.

OTD self-bump......has it really been a year........start with Fuzz's incredible lyrics, throw everything I had at it until some of it stuck.........One of the most fun collab experiences I have had.  Thanks Trevor-Fuzz-face.  Great memories from this song.

Having been to the beach at Barcelona a few times, I have to say it's not really the best feature of that beautiful city, lol. But this... this is EPIC. I must have missed it during an absence, so I'm glad it got bumped. I can't even imagine how you conceptualize something so ornate, Dave - let alone actually execute it. So many tasty interludes and flights of musical mastery. Outstanding lyrics from FF - I can see how they would have inspired you. But even taking that into account, you pulled of something very special here. Flipping huge!

Wow I can't believe it's been a year!  What an inspiring project that turned out to be.  Inspiration like that doesn't happen every day, that's for sure.

What a great song.

No holds barred precision madness.

Stunning and beautiful.

As many times as I have listened to this (countless), there is so much going on that I never fully paid attention to the drums.

Are these programmed in the BR or did you play them?

So many little touches... the definition of "masterpiece".

Glad this got bump'd... Damn Dave this is Epic. Too much to digest for this posting... will have to come back after a lifetime of listens to properly comment. In short... AMAZING!!!!
