It's a happy circumstance when Dylan, Willie, and the late John Prine are releasing new albums. This fits very comfortably in that vein. Nice one Gentleman. Love the fade out too.

Peter and Leon,
A very good and thoughtful lyric with the repetition setting the flow up nicely.
I agree the opening acoustic guitar grabs the attention ( we get so used to the RT guitar sound it makes me sit up when there`s something obviously different).
Lovely outro solo fits perfectly.

Ain't it the truth...

Straddling that line requires a lot of finesse!

There is so much to like here.

- the both thoughtful and thought provoking write

- the very nice vocals - had Janice singing along from the get go.

- Peter's guitar

- the cool arrangement and band choices

Janice said it made her cry the first time she listened the other evening.
So many life situations can fit this lyric. The hallmark of a great one.

Well done y'all!

Liked how you gave a slight punch to your main "It's a fine line" phrase with your voice doubling. The guitars were excellent, and the overall mix very pleasant. Enjoyed my visit to your music!

Had me smiling from the very first piano notes--boy, would I love to have you pull this apart for me so that I could understand how you built it up--super sound, loved it!

Nothing more to add to the thunderous praise you've all received already - except to say that I, too, loved it unconditionally. Well done.

Very nice lyrics, simple with a clear message but still giving room for thoughts. The picking guitar has very nice sound and fits the overall folk mood. Good selection of instruments and the arrangement has enjoyable variation. Great vocals too.

Yep... The kontakt guitar actually sounds pretty convincing. I have a third party acoustic guitar called Strummer. Sounds really good but it's a little bit stiff and sounds too mechanical as a result.


Thanks Herb. The Kontakt guitar does sound very nice - probably a way to subtly change the repeating pattern to remove the mechanical result that you get from this as well (but it sounds like hard work). Quite a lot of options available.

Kontakt Picked is ok...works, but as soon as Peter's solo comes in, you can see why it is just "ok" smile Congrats on this project! I would put this tune among top few I heard from you. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the support and lovely review. Evoking some emotion in the listener I think is everyone's ambition.
