Accordion!!! I love those things, I am a Finn and over there that instrument has through the ages been very popular, so, great intro. Nice full sound and melodies, the solo guitar is very flute like, I like this one very much, thank you for sharing. I have a new piece inspired by a Sydney man, Arthur Malcolm Stace also known as 'Mr. Eternity' (9 February 1885 – 30 July 1967), who for many years left the word 'Eternity' written in chalk on buildings, footpaths, stairwells etc. This is dedicated to 'Mr. Eternity' and members of my family who have passed into 'Eternity', R.I.P. 'Eternity": https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14690596 Also on the 'Tube': https://youtu.be/FwK57_1ycG0 Have a happy and peaceful Christmas, my friend.

Yes, there is an unmistakable 'Bretton/Celtic' feel to this. Fabulous 'cross-over' sort of tune that is infectious (in a good way of course)! Wonderfully happy and uplifting.

That intro sure fooled me based on title. Such an original sound. Celtic meets progressive rock. Not sure how to classify it. Excellent musicianship. Was wondering how you were doing. Came by to check things out. Very nice !
