Delicate energies and delightful lines &mdash 06/26/06 - 06:20:52 AM
The delicate filtered percolating sound, from the start, spoke of a unique
new age approach to the piece, which travels along with a growing light
energy. Very enjoyable. In the second verse, it seems some of your timing
isn't quite as precise as my ears wanted (slightly rushed feel at the
beginning of the verse 2 drumming, esp), especially in a laid back track.
Really nice jazz guitar sound and wonderfully lyrical lines. A delight to
listen to.

Thank you, Tobin, for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the music. I
just discovered Macjams.com yesterday and have already listened to
several of your compositions. So, a compliment like that coming from an
extremely talented musician like yourself is a real honor. Thank you
again.

misty mountains waking up in the morning... you've got some nimble
fingers there too... this was done on acoustic?? it has a hollow body
sound...good work. and I look forward to hearing more from you

Thanks, Scott. It's good to be aboard. Yes, I am using an Alvarez acoustic/
electric guitar. Believe me, it has been a real chore tweaking the EQ and all to
get the hollowbody sound. It's not as hollowbody as I'd like, but it'll have to do
until I can fit the real thing into my budget, which, unfortunately, won't be
anytime soon. Thanks again.
