Marc,

What can I say? - thank you so much.

Im overwhelmed with the positive reviews I have got, and some of them have been from my fav musicians on MCS.

I was lucky with this one, basically everyone came in and laid their parts and the track kind of took care of itself.

Yes, the vocals are great (this was the band i was hoping to put together), and then J and Argle put in the important finishing touches to make this complete.

Thanks again!
Andy

Hi J,

I second that, and I am so grateful.

And once again thanks for your magic keys!

Cheers

Excellent musicianship all around!!!

[Bassic_Soul]

Outstanding song and based on one of my favorite novels, very cool. 

(I guess you could say it's Orwellian) 

Kudos to Andy and all involved. 

A lot of tunes I've heard hear are better than what's on the radio IMHO.

Hi Preston,

Thank you for your kind comments.

Yes, Im a big fan of the book too, and the last line is really chilling: And in the end Winston found himself loving big brother (misquote:)).

It took me 4 weeks of reading and re-reading to be able to condense the essence of the novel into a 5:30 minute song!!!

I dont listen to mainstream radio - my playlist is basically garageband, MCS and and the Rogues Gallery, not counting my CD collection.

Cheers
Andy

Hey Cass,

Thank you, and likewise!!

I hope you would like "Earthman" when you hear it, I've pulled out all the prog rock stops for that one!!

All the best,
Andy

Andy, I can't wait to work on a song like that with you. I'm trying to get rid of some of my open projects, but as soon as I can see the end of the tunnel, I'm ready for it.
