Rock instrumental in 7/4 time. I really thank you listeners for causing this tune to reach #42 in Contemporary Christian! Now a year since uploading it, I never thought it would be so popular. May the LORD God bless y'all exceedingly abundantly

The changes just popped out of my fingers one day. The solo came out around 3 AM after some 40 takes and I was half asleep. After I woke up, I decided it worked well enough. I don't know if I could ever play it again, though. :) No amplifiers were involved. My tung-oiled all-alder Carvin DC127 and my custom Acacia fretless bass with D'Addario flatwounds were plugged directly into my Digitech GNX-3 and recorded therein. The drums are a built-in loop that was manually muted as necessary during the recording of that track. I had been thinking of recording a real 7/4 drum part but that track just grew on me. All four stereo tracks were then uploaded to my GNU/Linux PC via analog playback through my M-Audio Delta 1010 soundcard/breakout box and captured as separate .wav files, which were then mixed into the final results using the free software package Ardour. The only track editing was to trim the count-ins after synchronizing the tracks and panning--I don't like using punch-ins.

N/A. I see the tune as a long journey compressed into less than three minutes, with peaks and valleys, high and low velocity, etc., finally sliding into the destination, a little beat up, perhaps, but there.
