Re: First posting...



Reyn,

I'm a little late getting in on the listening party . . . I often am.

Your piece sort of starts out a bit like some sort of Sigur Ros intro 
and weaves into something more akin to rockin' '80s Blue Oyster Cult 
jam (at times).

When it get going it does rock too.

I think it's great.

Nicely done!

Ted
