Delightful piece CPM.  I love a weird guitar scale.  Rather than jazz this one made me think of Gong.  Maybe it is a Steve Hillage vibe coming through.  If you had Daevid Allen wibbling about pixies and teapots over the top of it, it could have been on one of their classic albums.  Very smart playing and production as ever and totally unpredictable, as a lot of your stuff is.  Why "Woolway", by the way?
It's all too beautiful.

@delboy - Thanks for the listen, glad you liked it.

@PaulyX - Cheers man, hmm Steve Hillage, well I never, Woolway was the guy that wrote it, Ian Woolway, he and Tony Sandeman were THE guitarists in the town I used to live in, and to play with either of them was like being invited into Heaven...so I relished the time I spent with them.

Really like the bit at 1:09
Remember.... it's just my opinion. It doesn't make me right. Although i probably am ;)

Was going to ask who/what Woolway was (fusion supermarket?).

Not something I would listen to for pleasure very often, but got into it partly because it’s just good quality and party due to funkier bits which really caught my ear.

Great sounds and performances.
