Description
Yet another acoustic effort. Once again our lead guitarist Wade pulled together another wonderful piece. This is the third take/mix of this song. The earlier versions were not as polished.

Great Guitar!
The tone you are getting on your guitar is wonderful. The tune itself reminds me of early CSN (one of my favs). Great harmonies and nice transition to the bridge. Really nice work.

Great work on the guitar here, really pulls the song together. Vocals are top notch and the title is reflected in each part of the song. Melodies are sweet also, nice job, thanks for posting!

Just to be clear!
The person playing and singing on this track is our lead guitarist Wade. I'm helping with backup vocals and I helped with the guitar work. I could never take credit for Wade. He is phenomenal and I hope to play with him again soon!

Like the
transition in the fingerpicking from the start. Nice singing as well. Enjoy the recording of the fingerstyle music especially. Gets interesting to me when you start in the haromonization. Like how in the left hear you have the fingerpicking go down in a bass notes and a higher register it seems in the right ear of my earphones. Nice! Good job as well with the flutes. Like the ascending guitar with the flutes past the 1/2 way mark. The flutes really fits well with the fingerpicking music. This really is quite a delight in all aspects of the music.

I love it
when people can sing together and add that combination of voice to the instruments. This is wonderful. Your recordings are crisp and clear. It is almost like being there. Thank you.

Came back.
It is a little bit bluegrass a little bit Celtic. I would like to see the lyrics, because, mainly, that makes it easier to sing along. Flute is a lovely addition. thanks, once again.

What a beauty,
man this is just beautiful, lovely guitar work, reminded me a little of the who's behind blue eyes for some reason. But for me it's the singing that really sets this one off. Just an amazingly peaceful (yet not fatiguing) melody vocal, and the 'cascading colours' part holds the hook. Really excellent playing, arrangement, and production. Everything sounded perfectly balanced and mixed in my headphones and on the hi fi. Thanks for this, a real gem.

ps. the backing vocals and flute are brill too, especially the outro

a great song, thanks

Again
very evocative of that era, slightly 'hippy' to English ears and cool because of it. A nice blast from the past.Psychedelic Cascading Colours.....:)

What does one say about a hacker... ? Not so much... Work is really busy, life is really busy, I have no talent, few skills and right now my creativity, musically is zero. I've only been here 2 years and I've seen MJ turned upside down a few... [see more]
