i wouldn't say murdered maybe a little beaten up though ....i love that piano work this is the first time I've ever heard it on the piano and it sounds great.....
Neither of us realized this is a Van De Graaf Generator song - I received the lyrics through an old friend of mine who passed away a few years ago. His book of poetry by Peter Hammill was one of his favorite possessions and he hand wrote out the…

You have interpreted the poem perfectly Chris. The poignant strings, military drum rolls and booming explosions set the scene most sympathetically. It's rather haunting! Lovely job indeed.

Chris and Bethan - Spellbinding collaboration... Dramatic, exciting, and beautifully performed. Love the reverse vocals at the end - sounds French! Super cool.

Crumbs Chris, that's incredible. Sounds really good, the music is superb, very nightmarish but dreamy too. Yeah, most impressed.
@Jane, Trev and Kavin, thank you, we had a great time.
I've been going to a lot of performance poetry nights recently, and this is amazing, Bethan. You'd go down a storm at my local Art House! Great collab :)

Compelling interpretation of a powerful poem. Great job, guys! Tess
Great track, Vaisvil. Strong sounds, well constructed... evocative without having to do too much.

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.
like it good mood
Just realized I really like this song, but rarely hear it. You may have topped the original.
Definitely sounds like an Indian influence here. Nice work Chris. I like the tone too, sounds like a really good guitar. Bethan
Really nice! I gotta get me an old electric and pull the frets off sometime!
Not what I was expecting at all but they are there, on the end.I think you are getting good at this Chris. Yes, very clever. Cheers Bee

I can relate. Its a bummer when the stuff in the box starts to move.
This has some nice shades of Devo to it - really like that!
excellent!
Beautiful!
nuclear winter in the basement? careful 'cause the blues has swallowed many a man and you got the mojo coming 'round to take you to the crossroads
sounds so acoustic! Not at all what I expected!
cool evolution of space!
Much enjoyed!!
you come up with such unique sound sculptures!
This is beautiful!
This gives a sense of a huge space with a guitar sound that rips the fabric of space-time - really great!
Love the textural development!
Always love your playing Ben!
I like how you use loops - your guitar becomes orchestral!
Cool piece!
On theme or not I love your piano playing!
Very good - nice and intimate, uncompromising!
