This is an acoustic track with Ralf Towner influences. There's a lot of acoustics in there Nylon, Steel, and 12 string. Solo section travels over 5 different keys.
Eaten by Snakes

An experiment in some more "outside" concepts. Holdsworth, Scofield. Bruford influences. This needs some Sax melodies or solos in the 7/8 pad section. Now that I've bought new recording gear I'll be finishing this off as I originally intended.
