Foreboding strife
 
Until bout 20sec
 
The bass kills
 
That old time synth sound is cool
 
those backing vox?  Who is your choir?  My lord who?
 
At three minutes the light shines, the subdued solo, man! Are you using a slide?
 
And then at 4 minutes you kick MFA
 
sometimes
in the world today
the butter and jelly
comes into play
with the deftness of a clown
intentionally
 
(a real clown, not a politician
harmonic convergence
left hand motocross)
 
makes you think
 
nice work homes

What a great review Jesse, thank you. Yep, used a metal slide in there. So glad you liked that little outro. The choir is Daryl1968 and his good lady.

Wow James - that is nice - so creative - and all of the playing is just fantastic. I really love this one.


 
 
Thanks very much Mark, I'll be checking your new one out this evening, looking forward to that.

OK, that was too cool...    "Dream" vibe?  Yup, check. 
 
A little Floyd-ish for sure, but different enough to be its own thing.  The "choir" sounds perfectly blended.  The slide part was really nice, and the guitars just all around sound great.  I enjoyed those little lines starting at around 3:50.

Thank you Steve! Glad you liked that little 3 guitar 'conversation' at the end.

Another great track, I like the guitar tone and the backing vocals give it a nice lift compared to using samples.

Outstanding.  I love this style of music anyway, but this is perfectly done.  Floyd-ish, as has been pointed out, but without the negative energy I get from a lot of Floyd music.  Gentle warmth instead of cold despair, if you know what I mean.  
 
Anyhow, on my second listen now.  Thanks for sharing!

That was a nice way to start the day.  A perfect blend of tones and textures over a flowing arrangement.
