Hi Janne ...

Thank you so much for those very nice comments! I've always loved Gypsy Fiddle. When I was a child, we had a family friend who was 100% Appache (American Indian tribe). He played Gypsy swing - many years ahead of his time here in the States. I can still hear him playing in my mind. I was hooked early!

Your song is really nice! You always have great arrangements and production.

Wishing you the best ...

Alan

I like Gypsy fiddle on this, brings that vintage saloon feel.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.



Hi Misha!

Thank you very much! I'm delighted you like that line - it's my favorite part of the lyric. Wishing you the very best!

Howdy!

Glad you liked it! I appreciate your really nice comments. As I mentioned to Misha, I love Gypsy fiddle. I'm glad you mentioned that line - no one else has. I kind of like it too!

Again, many thanks!

Hello peter ...

Thank you very the very comments - both on the song and the surgery. Much appreciated. Not worried too much about the surgery. My background is visual health and I'm quite cognizant of the medical issue and exactly what they'll be doing.

Wishing you the best ...

Alan

Hi Tom ...

Thank you so much! When I started putting the noise to this one, it all just fell into place ...less than an hour from the time I started contemplating the music until I was ready to record it. As far as the vocal, this one felt pretty. I'm usually not to excited about my vocals, but this one sounded pretty good, I thought.

Again, many thanks.

Alan

Hi Alan.

Well that took me by surprise.

I was expecting something slow and heart-rending in a minor key, but what a delightful
backing to put those lyrics to. A very clever piece of writing and an excellent song.

All the best to you and Di, my friend - you're in our thoughts. Make sure you keep us all
up to speed when you can and hope to see you back on here soon.

Cheers, ROG.

Hi ROG ..

Well, surprises can be good! Glad this was a good one for you. I didn't want a sappy, boo-hoo dirge. The idea was to suggest "we tried, it worked a while but it eventually didn't work anymore. So let's say goodbye in a friendly tone and go our own ways". I think it worked it this time.

Glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks for the nice words and the well wishes for Di. I'm having major eye surgery next Friday. They're gonna pop it from the eye socket, go in from the back, make a few repairs and out it all back together and pop it back into place. Soumnds like fun ... eh??!!

Best to you ...

Alan
