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

Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
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.

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.....

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

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.

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
Well heres my attempt at singing Jerusalem....i would have liked to have performed it better so that the vocal would have done Chris's music more Justice but sometimes you just have to do what you can and go with the flow........thanks Chris…
When i was a young man I stayed round a so called friends house once and heard them talking about me through the walls ........i never let on i heard.........needless to say they are no longer my friend............Hopefully they will hear the…

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.

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

Thanks again! And I usually don't like banjo - but love it here!
Sad Reg, but so true for too many.
This a beautiful and indeed your arrangement is spotless
Thanks for the listen and comment - now to listen to your piece.
thanks for the listen and rating!
Hi John, thanks for listening. The tuning is 11 EDT and uses 0, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 as scale degrees.
wow! a beautiful memory - very cool. I've only seen just a few meteors so I'm glad to hear your story!
excellent! great vocals and guitar!
Thanks for making this happen!
its so sad when people are two faced - great tune
I posted your video here http://www.reddit.com/r/videos/new/ I hope people watch it.
Wow! what visuals!!
wow is this sad - great vocals Reg!
wow! over 3 hours of music together! I had not realized...
thanks for the inclusion!
very intense programmatic ambiance.
And I should say - some people indeed need their reality checked...
This is great - I love the harmonies especially. The whistle is an excellent counter point to the wonderful guitars.
I'm sharing this to my facebook page. Excellent message Mr Landry!
love this message - and the way it sounds like a Woody Guthrie 78 recording!
