Well, this is the last song in the Lobster man song cycle. I had one left in me to get out, this one hopefully finishes the story for our Lobster man and his son Lobster Boy. I can now finally move on to other things... thanks for listening…
Returning to this one in a different place...I had nearly forgot the synthy goodness in the break, and all the other nice touches you have added. Great production, man!
I am leaving this week for a while but couldnt resist adding as the third collaborator on this excellent track by Keith Landry and Osckilo before I go.
Added some bass,ambient stings, and of course sleigh bell
Hope you guys like it.
See you…

Great story! This has got a real Beat feel to it.
Great listen, love that tuning and e-bow!

Nice wintry mix!
Nice slice of West Coast psych, acoustic-style! Really enjoyed this.
Very interesting piece - by the end of it, I felt like I'd been through the Star Gate in '2001'!
Very much like the great man himself! I enjoyed this very much.
One of many faves from you, henwrench...uke & bass glam! More triangle!
Still loving this, it's so swoopy! But we also need the remix here...please? :)
Me too, in spades...it was a real pleasure to work with you!
