Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.

Richard I am Following this, Good results so far. I think the brass and strings might rub nicely with B3 organ. I dont know if thats possible , but it just pops in my mind.

Thank you so much, Richard for your kind words. Glad we got you up dancing on, "old". I had trouble standing still when I was recording the vocal. LOL!
I wish I could find the right words of what your music does for me. I'm always moved. It takes me somewhere. You are so very talented. XO

Great title for this sombre piece. For some reason it brought a mental picture of Arlington Cemetry to mind so I hopefully got the feel that you intended. Fine work

Frozen eyes....
and like the wail of a crying child...
she grieves for what is lost to her...
finding solace in a shared moment....
she absently brushes the thought away....
there is no beauty in the sky....
or warmth on her face…
Celebrating my 1 yr. on this site. This just came out of the blue. Nothing planned here.
Thanks to all of you for your support and listening ears!
Cheers -
simply beautiful,, sometimes those that just appear of their own accord can be the most amazing,, on a tech note is this only recorded in mono? i was listening, and then switched headphones but still only have mono,, love the flurrishes after the 4 min mark,,,, always a fun way to add a bit of drama,, well done,, richard

I thought I'd uploaded this ages ago!
Less chaotic 'Chaos' after I found a melody I was happy with, and the delay button :)
Enjoy! xox
P.S. I knew I'd seen it on here somewhere - it was uploaded by Jip under Third Quarter of the Moon :)
