Nice and smooth guitar instrumental Michael - some interesting twists and turns throughout make for an enlightening drive :)

There's very nice and pleasant character of this play - something about meditation. It makes you feel relaxation even if you're busy with something else while listening to the music. :)

Very nice instrumental with lots of great instrumentation! I'm wondering what year the 'Knapps Cutoff Band was active. This sounds new and fresh! Nice sounds!

The entire track flows so well as each instrument blends seamlessly to create something very electric and enjoyable. Besides your excellent guitar work, I was especially impress with the piano parts/solo. Nice!!!

A fascinating combination of smooth and energetic. Incredible yet effortless speed, a complex arrangement, and a whole lotta talent.

Beautiful tune and great production. Technically it is pure top class on all instruments. Some jazzy turns and twists in the guitar and piano takes it quite a bit further than the average instrumental rock song. Impressive how such a simple, clean backtrack can release so much creativity in the solo instruments. Great stuff, Michael!

Very cool track Michael. Like the panning on the keys. Nice guitar work and tone. Another great and different track from you for me.
What is the story on the 'Knapps Cutoff Band'?

I love this smooth version of Night Crossing.
Really great work!
Conjures some very moody visuals, a very vividly painted picture with all the tones, textures and melody. I like the interaction between the guitar and piano.
