That was just 'beautiful,' Loved everything about this. Firstly the singing was just great! Well done Chris this was the perfect choice for you.
Daryl, the guitar parts were just superb! You guys are really making some sweet music here. Daryl, your sound mix was excellent!

The only thing missing for me was seeing you guys in action performing the song. Otherwise great job!!! B) :)

I'm going back for another listen. :)

Excellent performance guys. Chris you always sing well, but this time was better than anything else before. Daryl, I just wish I could play half as good as you. That solo was just so good, very melodic.

Beautiful!

I really enjoyed all of the guitar parts Daryl (nice balance and clarity). Chris your vocals were beautifully emotional. It sounded great.

You make a lovely collaboration team.

Many thanks for listening in Willem, Tom, Al, Bob, Craig, Dean, Marc and Michele, its great to have supporters through thick and thin! :-)

I asked Daryl to play the guitars for me on this wonderful 70's schmoozer as Neil Diamond songs are nicely inside my vocal range and I am trying to make some progress here, or at least, get some singing time in simply because its good for my soul! I love Daryl's work here, especially the solo. So a BIG thanks to my friend Daryl! The chocolate is in the post :-) (at last!).

As for the sound quality.... hmmm. The wav file and the mp3 file I can play on my laptop is crystal clear but making an AVS movie and uploading to YT has seriously mangled the sound you are hearing here on my post. Its like I have uploaded through a pool of mud!
So I have decided to join soundcloud which I have seen others using (Pete just uploaded his The Woman Who Murdered Love there and I think Buddy uses it too. In future, I will upload sound tracks there and link here to have a much better sound. We didn't do a movie as its a lot of additional work which doesn't add to the sound we made, in fact, it detracts big time when these videos are mixed and uploaded to YT.
