Doc, Nigel, Bilbozo, David, Bud....this is one incredible piece of music to my ears....a timeless classic for sure....just awesome!!!
Nice collaboration piece here David and other. Nice instrumentation, arrangement, vocals and production mix. Nice full sound all the way through and hold you captive with the interesting changes, sounds and textures. Very nicely done.
Peace and Blessings to all, John
Well this is certainly a case of better late than never, but I only heard this tune recently and was really impressed with this collab. Everything about it is great with Nigel's vocal putting the frosting on the cake. So nicely performed by all and so well produced and recorded. I can only hope someday my recordings will sound 1/2 as good as something like this. Just excellent DCD!
Bill (truevulgarian)
omg i am envious. its perfect. I am really blown away by this- and the lyrics are excellent. This track has made my day. Thanks for pointing it to me.
I think its an awesome track guys
very cool indeed

Dave and crew,
I do agree with Sherz with respect to the vox mix...I do believe it's too wet. Setting that aside, a fabulously well arranged and written song with a ton of feeling. It flows right along with those great lyrics while everyone is doing their utmost to contribute to this great piece. The cast of musicians here are among my favs. Really a wonderful accomplishment that connects straight up to inner core. Congrats Bill, Dave, Dave, Bud and Nigel!!! Super! ...B
Is this a darker side. lol. What a fantastic tune. you guys rock on this. I love the production and I love the lyrics. all in all I love this song very much it just Rocks all the way through. Killer, very Killer. Great Job.
RIGHT UP MY ALLEY!!! Doc Dave.......AWESOME!! A definite download for my MIX Prog CD's. You have everything here.......Nigel!!! My # 1 Vocalist!!! Your keys are FANTASTIC!!! Bill, Budd, and David all did a SUPER Job. Love the bass tone.
THANKS for a SUPERB Song!!!
Rob
This is an amazing song!So great to hear you all create this tune togetehr--such talent and soul!!Im feeling it and no better compliment to feel it in the gut!
Killer stuff gents--soars to the highest mountains and beyond!
Wow.. What a great combination of talent here..Love the intro David.. You always do a remarkable job on those keys.. Then when Nigel starts singing with that amazing voice.. I'm in total awe.. With Bill on his (Stratage) ? Guitar, Fender Bender on Bass & Budd doing his thing.. This song has turned out Spectacularly good!! Kudos to everyone involved!! 5*****
All The Best,
LP/Linda
Well, it's certainly big and melodramatic with all the classic prog-elements, with some great performances throughout. Nice! I was never a huge fan of prog but I certainly appreciated the diversity and musicianship that was often associated with the style all Of which I can hear in this track. Guitars, keys etc etc all sound really good. Some of the drum fills sounded a little 'machine gun' but not something I'm gonna lose sleep over! Overall the mix sounded a just a little 'thick" for want of a better word.
Now, I do have one major issue with this mix though. And I realise my opinion is contrary to most others! I note Farell said "how important it is to make every guitar solo note count". More so for me - every vocal note and word should count, and unfortunately for me there's large sections where I can't tell a single word that is being sung. There's also a handful of pitchy notes which I found a little distracting, which I think would be easy fixes. I think one of the issues is the way the vocal is mixed. It may have been the way it was done back in the 70's but I'd be going for a much drier, upfront approach. There's a character-rich granularity in this voice which is being masked quite a bit by FX which I think is a shame really.
All in all the a great collaborative effort!
Excellent collaboration from some very talented musical friends of mine! A powerful song David and the keys are great throughout! Nigels vox are very powerful and deliver the lyric message as only Nigel can. Bill...as stated in one of the Mix chats of how important it is to make every guitar solo note count in order to be exceptional...well you nailed it and the exceptionallity! As David mentioned in the info. section: Mr. Coonrod's fine bass playing coupled with Bud's solid drums stitches this song together to present a well defined, powerful, and professional progressive rock song....just like I like them...well done gentlemen! David thanks for directing me here to listen and comment!

hey what a super group, and the result is a super track, totally prog rock, superbe performance from all involved congrats on a great piece of art.
A very classy intro, love that piano, pulls me in, a drum roll to give a suspenseful anxt...enjoy the cascading keys before the guitar begins a new journey into quite a different mood;-- very well thought through with the shimmering chimes and bell alters one into a mystical realm.
Great guitar soars in like a fierce burst. Great vocals. Love the transition with a lovely organ sound, and fine addition keyboard artistry to change the feeling. DYNAMIC right through. Such FAB arranging. Fine synth keeps that feeling alive where the guitar started flying, and the vocals began, complimenting the singing, of soaring sounds, with another blast of seering guitar. Great lyrics. A wonderful production. Fine chemistry. Love them keys, synth to piano and guitar that works so well together. Fine chemistry here guys.
A SUPERB tune, worth more listens. Totally awesome orchestration. *****

And thank you for the download, Dave.
This line-up of musicians, before even pressing the play button, hearkens of the wonderful music to come. Then, true to talent assembled here, and right out of the gate, this is a beautiful piece of music. Quite a special tune, to my ears and heart.
Such a well written song, flowing seamlessly through its beautiful changes, from beginning to end. The choices of instrumentation could not have been any more appropriate, to my ears. The mix and production are top-drawer.
The musicianship is as good as it gets... period.
Lyrically, a masterpiece, imho. Relatively few words, speaking volumes. Nigel's vocal is deeply moving, as is called for by the tune. Gorgeous.
But I think the biggest compliment I can offer is this: while writing this, I have been listening. Not sure how many times through, but it must be at least a dozen. I did not have any difficulty thinking of things to say... that's not why I let it play so many times. It played so many times because typing got in the way of listening to the song. I want to "listen" to this over and over. That is the highest compliment I know how to give a piece of music, and this piece of music is such a song.
I am completely blown away, gentlemen. I love it.
kooder
cool track all... Dave glad you pointed me to this one...this one rocks with heart... piano/keyboards are real sweet throughout and the contrasts musically are great...guitar work grabs ya, bass is methodical and driving, drums are tight and spicy in all the right places, Nigel is the real deal and generates such passion with your thoughtful lyrics... that chord change at 4:28 was awesomely uplifting... wonderful talent on display... loved it... thank you all!
Woooo Hoooo David ! Thank you for the heads up on this Incredible Collab. It grabbed me right from the start and held me captive in awe till the very end...... Love the Lyrics .... very well written. I could go on and on but as all the comments I have read below say it all. Congrats Guys on an awesome job on this song.
Likewise
I am sure most people who done collabs would agree,youw ant to get it right for all concerned.
I feel I should point out that the vocal melody is David's.
All I did was sing it louder LOL...
It is a fabulous song,and I CAN say that as a guest upon it.
An honour.
Thank you all,and thank you to those who have and those who will review.
I shall stop by and read them all
Nigel
