Mike, thank you for having a listen and replying. The vocal has been addressed but not posted. Check back in a week or so.
Guitarpima, it's good to hear from you. Thanks about the bass. I actually wrote this song around the bass track. As for the strings, I tried legato first, but it sounded less natural to my ears than the way I went. But, I think more experimentation in this area is justified. Thanks for your time.
Rikkie, that means a lot coming from you.
Vicente, thank you for coming by. I really had something of a dilemma with the ending, and I tried out several variations before going with this. Sometimes it's just a crapshoot. Again, thank you so much for you comments, and if I think of something better, I'll let you know.
Kev, you truly flatter me. I had Peter in the back of my mind when I recorded this, but I just simplified the guitar part as much as I could because my fingers are getting stiffer all the time. Thank you.
Randy, I've been following your music for some time on these various forums, and I'm glad you dropped in. Thank you for your kind comments and taking the time to listen. The guitar is just my 1975 Strat miking a Line 6 AX2-212 with a Shure 57 into a Focusrite Platinum Voicemaster. As for the ending, I will spend some time with that in the next few days. I just want to avoid my typical fade out. And, to all, Peter Gabriel was a large influence on me, and I can hardly believe that I evoked him to you, But, I am so grateful.
