interesting hearing this version. I of course remember playing the guitar parts. I really like what you did with the middle here! - cjv

a song about an old flame that just won't burn out. it's a ballad of sorts, with a harder ending. i did this in about 7 hours. in the middle section i am playing guitar without a pick for the first time in a recording (big deal hey?)

so the distorted part is w/o a pick? How unusual! Very 70's sounding - very floaty - cjv

it IS a big deal in my book. took me years to try it on electric. After I saw Sonny Landreth doing it I had to try. I'm glad I did, - now to listen. CJV

my tribute to a very underrated, underappreciated band. 40 yrs ago thier self titled lp came out, and i cover one from the lp as a tribute on thier 40th anniversary. im not a lead guitarist, and a new singer, so please bear with me on that.

Hahaha! I like the opening riff too! That's a hilarious back story. It must be from a long time ago if Chris was still playing in 12 TET. Whoot! I actually used the phrase "12 TET"! Cool ending too. Well done.

Sounds like authentic early prog! And I love that vocal mix! Super inventive.

Wow, psychedelic! I dig the stereo vocals, but I'd really like to hear all the vocals panned dead center... very cool track reminiscent of B.O.C. *Rock On!*

thanks, i think you mean the key solo, i decided not to try thier solo and do my own almost inna godda da vita, type keys. also in the second go round of vocals, i made the guitar chord play backwards for the background.
