A while back I posted the thing that's now the intro to this, and offthewall liked it and wrote a song to go with it. Then I added bits to his song and put it all together.

It's offthewall on acoustic guitar and vocal, and he wrote the proper song. It's me on saz, komuz, and slide guitar (and in the intro XILS3 LE).

Thanks, James, I enjoyed doing this.

nice song, sounds good

Thank you, markkuja.

Now you got me wondering where the vocalist is from...Brit?...Yank? Brit!

Hell, what do I know.

...I know that I enjoyed it.

Well .... definitely Brit ... but, man, I'm so old that I could be one of the original Pilgrim fathers

Thanks for listening.


James

the vocals have ... errm ... character ...
they really grow on you w/ repeated listens ...

the track had me thinking ry cooder , by way of john fahey ,
and that's a very good thing , indeed ...

'character' is a good thing. I never claim to be a singer, on a good day I can sometimes get a range of a full octave ... so, I'll take 'character' to be a compliment


I would put this down, mainly, to Dan and his atmospheric pickings.

Thanks for listening.


James

Fantastic down home track and yes the raw and honest vocal works quite nicely here. Had me thinking of The Band...

Very nice guys, bravo!

lovely song guys. delicious gentle melancholy.

neil.

Thanks, everyone.

wow: dream team! this could be from Roger Waters, if he wasn't so self-indulged.

Thanks, mello.

yeah, cool!

also, i know i used to give offthewall some grief about his vocal production; and this sounds like a big improvement in that regard.

@ polyslax, macmurphy, and Mello Chris

thanks for giving it a listen and for your kind comments

@ mrblitz,
many thanks for the cudos. Always striving for improvement and the negative comments, when appropriate and constructive, always help in that struggle.


James

Great collaboration guys. Lovin' that slide geetar DHM. Definitely diggin' the Cooder vibes here, and I can also see the Waters similarity to James' vocal. It almost had an angry quality to it.

An inspired duet.
