great tune, It has a un kind of feel, and it would go good with a glass of wine.

Coo, she looks relaxed! I'll have white! Nice trumpet Chris.

this sounds great chris

My favourite painting, as you know! Glad it inspired you so much! Tess S

Love that high pitch sound of the Trumpet! nice!

Ah! Reg, you are right. I thought she looked familiar. I wonder what she is looking at - no doubt somebody has dropped their wallet on the sofa.

you haven't got involved with Desirea .....she's no good for you Chris she' ll turn you to drink for sure.....it starts with one glass you know......great tune though.......

They say a good wine has nice legs...

Inspiring I like the accompanying monolog too.

Well creepy!

Instant favorite!

Some spooky sounds guys:) for example the stepping distorted light shoe tapping (L to R)...Perfect!

you hear a far off voice, the back ground music to the cosmos

This is Great and Stealing Pumpkins is really gettin' around. Maybe everyone should do a version. :)

great spooky start.....is everybody in?....the show is about to begin.......something is trying to eat the notes ....watch out.........or is it the inside of my head .........raise the alarm.........no it's ok it's going away ......I think it's gone back in the sea.........but I'm keeping an eye out....great stuff....throughly enjoyed the ride

Has great spirit ,to my mediocre mind

Strong and stirring!

just googled Walt....Walt is the man

just had a listen to this on your site excellent ........music and word go together great......was Walter an actor as I'm sure I recognise his voice from somewhere

Yes it is mellow sounding. Lovely collab!

Beautiful!!Great work here!

my dad at one time helped with a radio show - if I remember correctly Tilden High School in Chicago had a radio transmitter. This would have come from there. My son traced this back to about 1923. My father tended to bring things home from where he worked, etc. He even brought home, as far as I could tell, the entire Data General railroad traffic controlling computer - vintage early 70's - the programs were loaded via punched paper tapes - when it got replaced. And no, it wasn't used on this piece. Ben has it. But at 1000 Hz he should be able to get it work if he feeds it the right kind of electricity.

I love the floating feel this has.

also - you have an astounding memory!

Ha - this riff is mine? I sure don't remember it - now I feel embarrassed about my comment :-)

excellent! I love the opening guitar riff and cool ending!

Nailed Tom's voice!

Very Tom Waits - love it!

wow your voice sounds so like the Kinks!

love your voice here!

May I invite you to participate at ImprovFriday? You may have some fun! http://improvfriday.com/

I found my answer "These pieces are recorded live in my home studio. They are made with an electric guitar played through a laptop and a dedicated hardware looper."

What do you have in your ambient rig? I am enjoying your work!

Hi Bethan - I have no idea who played it - but they did an excellent job. The midi file I found somewhere in the 90's.

wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.

I love that metallic sound!

The cello work is especially good.

nicely done!!

excellent - this is a great song perfectly played and sung!!
