Hi All. It's been quite some time since I've uploaded a video. I guess I've been busy.
Anyway, here's a little doodle I've been working on recently. The video is truly a one-take. No effects. No 2nd (or 3rd) guitar. Nothing. I think I might try to add a melody and lyrics, a 2nd guitar and a bass part. Perhaps I'll even try to work in some vocal harmonies if I can get someone to sing for me (as I won't even try). Anyway, I hope you like it. And as always, suggestions and criticisms are ALWAYS welcome.

Daryl:
That was quite beautiful.
I really made me think of spring days hanging out with family and friends. Maybe a BBQ, or group picnic in the mountains. Kids playing, adults sitting around laughing and relaxing. Very soothing. I am quite envious of your ability to put chords together like that and get the rhythm sounding so pleasant. It was great to see a new clip. I am guessing you are finishing up on the building now (either that or the weather is too bad where you are and you are forced to hang out indoors these days...).
Our gain, whatever the reason... B)
Thanks for sharing.

That sounds very nice, Daryl! Not sure where it is exactly but youve created a: warm, breezy, atmospheric back-drop.
Definately sounds like something. That would be a fun one to build on...even though I think it works as is.
Good to hear from you,
Hope your build is going well and you had a pleasant holiday season.

Hi Daryl,

That's great Daryl! Wonderful song you have created. I can't wait to hear what you add to it. However, I wouldn't overdo it as it stands up nicely on it's own. I wouldn't want it too "cluttered"...
Great to see what you have been up to. Thanks for the peek...

Nice work Daryl. A lovely little happy tune you have created. Looking forward to what you add to take it forward.
Have you a title for it, or is it too soon?

Really nice feeling to this Daryl.
Yep! There's a story in there. You just have to coax it out.
It's a nice foundation. I'm looking forward to it's evolution.

I think this could become an absolute classic, you've just got to find the right melody line. The lyrics will probably be the least crucial element as long as the melody is good.
