Hi Songsmith

It's nice to hear such a melodic instrumental. This tune really stands up and would be well suited for a film or similar. Very evocative of a seedy latin bar. The brass makes me think this is what Tom Waits would sound like if he had been Mexican :) "I spent all my money in a Mexican whorehouse across the street from a Catholic church"

Great dynamics, and top-notch performances. I'm a sucker for classical/ flamenco guitars, and it's lovely to hear one on the forum. I can't criticise your composition at all. Melody, harmony, arrangement, delivery, all fantastic. Absolute quality mate :)

Heartfelt thanks to Sellon, Kafla, Erimus, Spaceblimp, Pez, Jim & Tone for all your kind words. These mean a lot to me as you all write such different styles & to know that this tune works for all of you  is so encouraging to me. Thanks guys :) :) :) :) :)

Great piece. Excellent combination of string and brass. Love the mood. I can imagine it fitting in really well as a soundtrack of an appropriate film.

Nice one.

Don't know how I missed this one - Brilliant. Love the brass. Great Mix. Nothing constructive to be said - no criticism needed.
Youth & enthusiasm are no match for age and treachery.

thanks estreet & Cameron, glad it hit the right notes for you, back to Sevilla ( more inspiration hopefully) for me in the morning for a week so I thought I would thank you before I shoved off.

Holy crap! I love this.
There's nothing really here that I can say about this one. I feel the humidity, smell the alcohol, see the smoke. Beautiful.

Great tune. Great production and playing.

BLAST! I was working on a little Latin flavoured instrumental piece. I'll really need to up my game to compete with this.

Damn fine work.  :)
