    I thought it quite nice. Perhaps a bit long on the intro before the rest of the instrumentation comes in but that may just be me. Cool stuff...

    Very nice laid-back, summer feel to this song.  Oh ya, excellent playing also.
    Nice one.

    This is very good... it's crying for further development... Drums, bass...
    go for it...

    Very nice song!

    Might want to tighten up the tuning a little. The D sounds a bit flat to me on one of the guitars.

    Hi Dan, this is very nice and laid back, perfect for a hot Summers day or as it's over here a glum wet and windy one . Pity you can't get rid of that buzz.


    Greetings, Rik

    This is a great tune. Nice twist in there at 1:33. The tuning is a bit off as Bub had mentioned. I also agree with Frank...needs more. I would introduce drums and a more lively bass line at 2:00 and see where that takes the song.

    Well, the earlier listeners probably have better ears than me, so I'll just say that I enjoyed the listen... nice tune.

    Thanks everyone.This song started out as something simple, but it seemed to just keep building with more tracks.I started to worry that it might be getting too cluttered .
    That's one reason I didn't add drums. I also wasn't sure that it would have the same feel with drums. I wanted to keep it simple and melodic.Kind of a lazy summer tune.
    The buzz that Rik mentioned is frustration to say the least.My biggest problem is I can't hear it. I have tinnitus but that's a high pitched ring.I don't know if it's a high pitch buzz that everyone is hearing..
    I appreciate everyone listening and offering your advice.

    Thanks
    Dan
