Thanks again John. Thanks Lynn. I think "trippy" is probably where I hang out, although oddly I don't do drugs! I just have a lot of time invested in trying to make sense of psychedelic jams from the '60s-'70s by Pink Floyd and the Grateful Dead. Thanks for the re-evaluation Clint. I'm glad you were wrong, since that probably means my song has improved! :)

I missed the earlier version, but I like this. It serves your intent as an appetizer, and while it sounds nice on its own, it definitely set me up for what's coming next.

Trippy, spacey, psychedelic, call it what you will, it is all of them put together to bring you on a journey "Among The Stars" in Walt's spaceship of sounds. I find it all quite interesting and mind invoking, but I still hear some guitar needed in there to postulate the theme. Nice work thus far Walt. Peace and Blessings, John

Thanks mikeinFL, RobertB, and John for your comments and listens/re-listens. :) I think at this point I'm going to call this one... done. Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts!

I like the rest of the song except the first part and beginning of the song. ?? Best though.

Thanks olemon and spacealf. @olemon: Your words humble me. You are a great songwriter and producer. I can't do Americana like you can. I used to try though. But in the last year and a half I've been studying synth sounds and using them as my instruments instead of guitars. It's been a fun learning experience. :)

Walt I really, really like what you have done here. Can’t really offer any constructive criticism other than I dig the vibe…very nice. Sounds very cinematic to me… The title 'Among The Stars" really suits the piece also....
