To me, the sound quality is too poor to get a proper impression of many of the songs. I'm sure I will like this song when I can listen to as the "artist intended".

Drover's Road is definitely for me!    It's a cross between Before Gas & TV  and Yon Two Crows and I would love to hear it played live!

Definitely a grower, looks like this album will have no skipper to me after all.

How come that nobody mentioned that gorgeous les paul? Especially when it comes in at the beginning, only surrounded by few instruments. Fantastic! Can‘t imagine how amazing this big fat and loud gibson would sound played live! Almost like on brothers in arms  ;)

The outro is even better. It just builds up like KOG or YTC. Really like that. Could work great live.

A friend of mine told me that Drovers road melody rang a bell to him but he didn't know why and that was driving him crazy...

In the end he found out. He says it reminds him this song:

Funny!   My first thought was that it reminded me of this someHOW, not exactly but it was my first idea and from the same movie:



What is so funny to me is that when I listened to that song from the (good) album when it came out I was thinking this Ed Sheeran song has something from MK..

Good call, 'Drovers Road' is most definitely simular to 'the misty mountains' from the fabulous hobbit....  :clap
