This has many of the elements from "Dark Side Of The Moon" which makes this collaboration a success.  It has that experimental but classic sound combining terrific vocals with tasty instrumental textures.  The mix is interesting and different from what I'm used to hearing from you two.  It might need a little "starch" to glue it together a bit, but I'd take it as is.  Good job, guys!

the 1st note, you mean that little whammy bar up-bend on the low e string?!
hehe, i don't know why i added that in there, i thought i was going to chop it out, but when i kept running thru mix sessions,
it just wanted to stay.
queen was a huge influence to me (well, at least brian may)..... and that song you mention,
that was from the highlander film, wasn't it?
cool tune.
thanks for listening and commenting grizzly!
 

Yes, they used that tune in the movie and in the Highlander TV series. 
 
The "bar up-bend on the low e string" with the 1/8 note (or maybe 1/4?) delay sealed the deal early on. Glad you didn't cut it!  Loved the synth that followed as well, especially on headphones.

Sorry, I blew it with the quotes.  I guess I need to read up on how to copy/paste excerpts.  What a rookie.

Collabs tend to bring out the best in musicians.... and this is no exception.

Excellent collab from you two, and very cool that it made it onto an album release. That's the best thing about the Songs forum for me, people playing off each other's creativity.

hey james! this collab DID come about, from interaction on the forum...
i know there are several projects always in progress at any given time from folks that are willing to do it,
i highly encourage it!
and thanks for listening

thanks a lot lynn,
DSOTM was definitely a touchstone for this,
along with about 20 years of prog rock...........! LOL

yea, those synths sound pretty huge.
that's part of what drew me to it when wookiee invented it...
on MY monitors, before i eq'd them to fit the entire mix, it was huge. filled the entire room with sound....
i left in as much girth on the synths as i could, before it started eating up everything else.
