Privateering: The B-sides
« on: August 31, 2012, 08:27:54 PM »
So, tell us (who knows), how about Occupation Blues, River of Grog, Follow the Ribbon and Your Perfect Song? Anyone willing to share his/her opinion about the songs? Haven't heard 'em but like to know you know. ;) :lol

Actually, there is anybody that has "your perfect song"?
You might get lucky, now and then

Could you report somewhat more precisely if the EPK is included on the DVD? I mean, is it mentioned in the menu, to begin with?

And did you manage to work out where you can download the show?

Thanks!
I find it interesting that even for a computer affine person like you it seems difficult to work out where to find the download? No instructions?

Btw,

"additional photography by Guy Fletcher" - the session with the lots of guitars seemed to be taken by Guy...

Mark saves money where he can..

follow the ribbon (the 8 min song) is to my liking, but it is not in the typical row of TOL or TR, it is a beautiful song with some marky noodling, but no solo as we would like it.
 but i DO like it.

Occupation Blues - quite nice guitar and piano work on this, ... could be a track from Kill to get Crimson or Ragpicker, ... like this one

River of Grog - slow track, and MK whistles ;-)

Follow the Ribbon - mix with celtic sound and pedal steel, some short guitar parts, melancholic - nothing really new, but nice - without suprises

Your Perfect Song - very "small" song - easy melody.
