I liked it. In my music theory course.."Many moons ago" my teacher only played piano. Being horrible with sheet music as I am, it took forever to transcribe it over to guitar and drove me insane. So I say good at you Chris. If I only had then attention span for music like you and Norm do :)

You have this way of inserting an oriental flavour into your music which I find most attractive. Started my busy day off nicely, thank you.
flowing,,to this,,,yes
Well, I was spellbound!
Can I get to the video from you site?
Nice! Saw the video on FB...how's little Gandhi doing?
Love the jazzy feel to this
The photo says it all, and the music proves it!
Aaaahhhhh....walgreens...endless lines of sick people waiting for pills delivered to you by the clerk that the last guy just pissed off..."Get your meds and get outta here"...*shivers* Nice one
I'm not sure what's happening here, but I think you might want to get those prescriptions filled! j/k! Great track

The song makes me feel that the fake life I lead is still stranger then the real one that happens.
very nice writing,,, the sound is very crisp and clear,,,
“Something has changed. The world feels strange now. Even the way the clouds move isn’t right.†Wow, powerful stuff.
A most mournful and lovely piece with a definite feel of Japan. A perfect accompaniment to your amazing photograph.
Fantastic playing there. Congratulations. Pity it's only a minute long though lol
Wow factor here! Fascinating video, kept stopping by the way, but shows that life still goes on. I like way you mixed the images. Wonderful chorale!
A most interesting and beautiful listen with lots of atmosphere. Lovely Chris!
Most interesting, thanks for it. Your music fits the content perfectly and adds stirring atmosphere.
