Sweet harmonics what's going on here! This lights up the head phones. Packed with raw emotion ,the string thing is in session. Superb display of what a guitar can say without spoken words. This talks loud and clear. Some times all you can say is it real damn good!!!!!!!Complaments to the chief...this was a tasty treat. On to our guitars  Rock Station for sure.

I`ve downloaded this fantastic backingtrack also but some

This made my day when I heard your take on it, Michael. I like the playing, technique, phrasing and overall mix. Great work!
I'm in my 2nd week of chemotherapy now and this version is helping me to keep the positive mindset despite some side effect issues.
Best,
-Mike (FGP)

Very soulful and emotional playing on the lead, and I love the subtle work with the keys in the background. A song that sounds like it comes straight from the heart!
