Two more tunes - one minimalist, the other prog rock

Thanks for all the feedback from my first post. Here are a few more contrasting bits and pieces.
 
All This Time - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m889vdCaJcM&feature=colike
This is in a prog rock style. There is a bit in the middle which is too long, so feel free to forward wind to when it hopefully gets a bit more interesting, and I feel quite shy about the vocals and lyrics.
 
Another Slow One - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLCd9qCoZPI&feature=colike
I recorded this years ago, but I've added some of my flower photographs.
This is a minimalist piece (a bit like Steve Reich/Phillip Glass but slower).
 
Feedback and advice gratefully received.
 
[The main thing I do live is an acoustic rock flute and guitar/vocals duo. We do a mixture of our own songs and classic rock covers (Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Guns and Roses, etc, with the flute playing the lead guitar role). We are having a gig recorded in a few weeks time, so if it were to be of any interest, I could put a link up to some of those songs.]
 
Best wishes,
 
Malcolm

    I will comment on "All This Time".
    I like the movement a the synth and the track in general.
    I do feel that the track could benifit from tightening up
    the guitar work starting at about 1:38
    It is not hiting on the down beat causing timing issues.
    Enjoyed this listen.

    Always up for a bit of Prog Rock, hey man don't be shy!!!  It will always come through in your performance.

    Very tasteful Gilmour style lead guitar and as the above poster suggested, fixing the tightness of the track would be a good move, do you know how to use the audio snap pallate, that will fix the timing issues.

    The drums are a little thin but good job!!

    Peace Ben

    This is something a bit contrasting to the other two tracks I posted here -

    All this time

    Nice work. 

    The video work I'm sure was just as intense as the music. It is well done all the way around.


    Comment on the song topic: And yeah, unfortunately, I think we have more of this coming....
