jungle Add a groove from a set of congas or bongo drums to this piece and the jungle feel will be complete:) Great playing as usual. Enjoyed it:) |

We come to expect academy recitals with the name and works of thetiler. You certainly have not steered off the true course with this one as well. Great everything in the production and delivery on this. |

Wow Bill This is a really amazing bit of guitar playing you have here. I really feel a Leo Kottke vibe too - those strings sound so rich and true. Lovely work with the harmonics - although I agree with thoddi that congas would be great with this, maybe a live conga player would work best if you had one living in a back room or something. a superb post! |

Impressed Wow Bill, your dexterity and skill with that geetar are always a marvel to listen to. I wouldn't normally associate acoustic guitars with jungles but you've done a fine and evocative job. Great little build-up towards the end. |

Just Wish I had the dexterity in my fingers that you have, but it would be no good without the talent that goes with it and that you obviously have. Another great piece of music from you Bill with extra brightness, cheers M |

Wow! I'd forgotten just how fantastic a player you are, Bill. Awesome stuff! I see you're talking about radio airplay with Roxylee %u2013 maybe I could play this on my podcast music show at some point?! It's not quite radio but pretty close to it and would see your music getting out to a new audience. |

Dang!! that was really good. thanks. I haven't heard that kind of pickin in quite some time, you do it well. My only critique would be that some of the reverb reflection were too far out front in the mix, and I felt they were somewhat distracting. |

Wow!! Immensely Elegant. Makes me wonder what the heck am I doing with my guitar.....definitely not as much as you are demonstrating in this tune. Absolutely Beautiful! |

Nice A little lost in just playing...something that happens to alot of acoustic guys...the guitar has so many great sounds that we tend to just play and forget to impose our will (themes, melodies). It makes for great background music, but hard for people to remember as a piece. Great sound and great playing |

A really strong recording... The artist formerly known as Shaky has a point, as regards the beauties of just playing, and the need to then take those sounds and make melody and theme from them... BUT, I've listened to enough of your stuff, Bill--and let's face it, you are one prolific dude--to know that you more or less do it all. Sometimes you sound like your playing for just the joy of stringing together licks and sounds, and sometimes you improvise, and sometimes you compose right on through, and come from a strong melody. So for my money, it's all good... Different songs have different strengths and attractions than others... This is another very strong recording with nice use of the spaced mics and reverb... And I'll bet as I work through my email list, I'm gonna find another song from you. I'm just betting... Ed |




















tweak out every nuance of your instrument onto the recording. From the fret peep, to those wonderful harmonic overtones. Quite the journey
