A homage to Steve Hackett (who wrote this piece)

This is played using John O'Sullivan's Blue JI tuning. Pianoteq and Kontakt didn't play nice together so I had add 4.81 cents to all of the flute notes.
With Frank Miller on drums and bass as the band "2" - a rescue of a late 90's song grabbed from 4-track.

An animated score is below. Ironicly this is scored for a quintet - piano, guitar, bass, sax, and drums. Probably one of the more famous 5/4 time songs.
Reg has nipped down the cellar tonight to contemplate the big question...this is what he came up with ...he could be wrong who knows...and now he's going for a nice hot bath...............
Reg heard the color of the lonely street by Vaisvil and Norbert and got himself all Jazzy inside.... so he's released it .........by going out for a walk along the lonely street..........

Comments on vaisvil's stuff
I love the steel!!! You got a great sound here and the playing is fantastic!
Fantastic, inventive stuff.
yes, sounds lovely to me. That poor little chap in the nappy. No wonder he looks so embarrassed.
Good stuff. Something I was in the mood for. :) --Jake
love it!
love it ......
still excellent ....love char's v
Chris, this is truly wonderful work! And this is my 2nd attempt at telling you!
Hackett and this one are a big fave of mine, nice take on a beautiful melody.
This is great!!! I'm loving the chorus.
That's some extreme baroque!
Smooth, real smooth.
Wow! This is going on my website. Thanks Chris. http://www.johnsmusic7.com
Wild indeed!
Brilliant!
That was nice!
I like that 'Careful with that axe Eugene' scream at midway. nice!
Ha ha, great! I prefer it to the original and I love the music. I like the way you used instruments for the harmonies.
We had this tune played at my dad's funeral. Nice arrangement Chris, lovely and jazzy! No, hold on .... Wow! it's great!!
Wonderful music to accompany such an emotive photo.

Nice guitar, vocal, lyrical work on this. The reason is the path of choices that define who we are - and yes it is inside.
Don't forget the original idea was Norbert at the piano!!
Great vocal interpretation! Thanks Reg!!
There ain't no one worth that.
yes! Nice gritty blues!
I don't hear anything amiss with your playing. Your vocals are as usual awesome.
speak up Norm I can't hear you!
the production is totally spot on - love the lyrics and music. I didn't know what the Angie Fights Crime project was about - I was missing out.
Enjoyed the music - great recording and song!
Desiree - I don't want to be just another notch on your lipstick case.
excellent!
nicely done! Naw she don't want me.
I'm just stunned at your Robert Plant voice in this. Wow.
maybe its for the best it didn't work out Reg.
Reg - you did awesome vocals on this!
rocks!! I gotta get to your cellar - but would your crowd throw stuff at me if I played microtonal blues?
Here, Ladies and Gentle, and Desiree too, is a man who has gone totally off the edge of reality and is in a basket with a case number...
I had missed this one! Cool!
rocks!
damn - the room is spinning!
