Title: The Need of the World - Ambient Rock Instrumental
Post by: Billy on November 10, 2010, 02:39:33 PM

This was inspired by a poem of the same name by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Not much in terms of collaboration but I thought I'd post it just the same  :P

very intense piece.. but i guess the title reflects that... not much to say except it sounds great and could be part of any super group album.... melodic guitar phrasing instead of any old shredding.. atmospheric foundation with loads of nooks and crannies to explore after every listen.. interesting segmentation of pieces, no real defined structure and yet it holds altogther.. bit like a travel round the world... to all different places...segmented countries, no real defined structure, but everyone has the same basic needs, all held together by the world... I'll shut up now  ;D

Ditto what Mike said! ;D

So beautiful, Billy.  :) I've always loved that poem by Wilcox, especially the first stanza:

So many gods
So many creeds
So many paths that wind and wind
While just the art of being kind
is all this sad world needs
