Beautiful

and these types of music, can resolve sometimes easier then at first thought, well done here.

Good one.

Awe, that's lovely Chris! Good title! Bethan

Woo!! brave man taking this on with just acoustic and vocal. Hats off to you, sir. Nice one, like it.

I like your vocal Chris don't be so hard on yourself....ienjoyed.....

Full and exciting Chris. I thought it would be marvellous as a soundtrack for a film of the book Animal Farm. Not what you intended I'm sure! Cheers Bee

I heard this on the radio just the other day. ;) Sorry, I jest. Nice piano tone. Is it a real Rhodes or synthesized?

Nobody can follow Plant, especially on this one, so why even try? I ought to dare my local classic rock station to play this version and tell them I'll stop listening if they won't do it. Heh heh. That'll fix 'em, won't it? I dig the improv at the end; it makes me think that perhaps I should do my own "New Age" style cover of Stairway. Hmmm.

that's rather nice vais, a bubble & squeak of free jazz

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.....

Excellent!!

Interesting piece

Certainly is stirring stuff, unnerving and thought provoking. I really love your music Chris it's like it's stalking, ready to pounce - like a cat. Cheers Bee

well done..

Good stuff

Compelling interpretation of a powerful poem. Great job, guys! Tess

Great track, Vaisvil. Strong sounds, well constructed... evocative without having to do too much.

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. @Kavin, ha ha, it's the accent! Bethan

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.

Hi Richard, the tuning I used for the Magic of Belief has much more than major or minor and I used almost all of the. The opening plays with the chords CDG, CEbG CEb^G (a "neutral" third about half way between minor and major) and CEG (except the E is a purer 3rd than 12 equal) The main motive bottoms out at what my ears are telling me is a neutral interval against a D neutral chord (but I'm not 100% sure, I didn't work it out - could be D minor)

a very intense drone - I like the solo guitar work a lot.

and I love this song!

thanks for the comment.

Awesome! I love your fretless work!

love the sound of your synth here - reminds me lot of the old CS-10 I once had a very long time ago. http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/cs10.php

Thank you for the comments. I don't often comment here anymore but I do want to answer your Rhodes question. I believe Ben uses a Yamaha Motif. The clarinets are real. I'd love to hear your new age version of Stairway - that would be grand!

has ORH rubbed off on you?

Thank you for the comments Kavin - I know I'd be happy listening to B read a phone book too! And this piece is simply magical!

I'm at 28+ minutes.... this is awesome!

Beautiful. Gosh I really love what you do with your rig.

don't step on the event horizon!

yeah this is a good song indeed.

15 edo

crazy stuff!

I should mention the echo was a real echoplex... I do miss it.

OOOOh Bethan - the equipment was so bad it picked up Citizen's Band radios that were over-driven beyond the legal limit. Nonetheless. I still had the crush :-)

If by fuzzy wuzzy you mean touching my heart - well I had a crush on Cindy.

it is a vintage 1975 cassette recording with bad equipment - please listen to the spirit, not the reality.

this is great - there is a lot of playing with expectation in this. that is awesome work Bruce!
