Lovely piece of music, backing has an easy laid back mood. The guitar adds totally the right flavour. Very sweet indeed.

Man this is smooth. I see from one of your responses above that this is not your natural style, well let me say you've taken to it like a duck to water. Gotta agree with Doctor C as well....there's a lot of tasteful restrain in your playing on this. Lovely elegant phrasing with excellent use of space. The rhythm track is just what is needed and the keyboards give a perfect foundation for the melodic guit work. Really lovely track. Congrats.

Thanks very much for the ears and the generous praise folks. This one isn't really my natural style, but the ideas behind it mean a lot to me and, a rarity, I'm pretty happy with the execution! I forgot to mention that the "Earl Klugh-style" rhytm figure at the end is me too (not that it matters much).

Very flowing track with a very sweet guitar tone....It kind of reminded me of a cross of George Benson and Jeff Becks "Blow by Blow" Band.....maybe it was the piano. Very VERY NICE!!!

Very nice! Great tone and feel. You sure know what NOT to play Extremely enjoyable track - rich, smooth and nocely flowing. Love that EP!!!
<p>I'm a midlife blueshound who hasn't been in a band since high school, when my main ambition was to sound as much like "Get Yer Ya Yas Out" as possible. Still workin' on that in my self-taught way, but except for an ocassional open mic blues jam most of my playing time now is over backing tracks created by myself or online friends from some of the communities I frequent. At my site over at Soundick (which never seems to make you throw anything away) there are now over 500 of such efforts archived. That's a lot of recording practice, but only a marginal increase in playing chops.<br /><br />I bring most of the very best stuff over here when I remember to do it, so the things here generally stand the test of time to me. Elsewhere I'll tackle anything from blues to rock to jazz to funk if I can find a way in, but the results don't always merit (or reward) repeated listen.<br /><br />Fun for me, but as they say: your mileage may vary!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. I promise to review your stuff "real soon".</p>
