Beautiful song. So smooth and relaxing. Enjoyed every second listening to it.

Best wishes and greetings from Germany (to 'my' sunshine state; stayed in Miami for about 3 months a few years ago)

Thanks Gizmo, I appreciate the kind feedback. I am rediscovering a lot of hidden gems in my old work files. Glad you enjoyed this. The Miami area is pretty crazy, we live in Central Florida, a lot more laid back and sedate, haha. I hope all is well.

Gizmo, thanks for the kind feedback. It was nice to have a template to work with, and then have someone as gifted as Ernie to take over the sax. As always your feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope all is well.

Stunning sound. I've listened to a few of your tracks over the years and I seem to remember they are often uplifting and positive and generally rather beautiful. This is no exception. Very enjoyable listen. As an ex and very bad sax player i appreciate the skill here. Cheers Zoot.

Thanks so much BONEZ. Most of the work had been done on this a while ago, so this one was just like tuning up a car and hoping it worked haha. Thanks for your time and feedback. Greatly appreciated. I hope all is well.

My question is "did the title come first or vice versa?" and it came to me just by your intro where I truly felt the vastness of the sea. The sax gave to my ears the complexity of the life in the sea, it is so vibrant and its melodies are so dreamy, the variations, the pauses, your excellent synth work, not to mention the drums and the basslines, all together brought a beautiful world to my senses. Yes I could understand your title and I believe some things beyond it. So I do compliment you on this, excellent work (your sound is a beauty too).
Best regards, Anthony

ShortBusMusic replied 26th Jan 2026 - 1 month ago
Anthony, the song came before the title. At the time, I lived on the West Coast of the US, right on the ocean, and I always loved going for walks along the shoreline. I had the song written and then asked Slap if he would bless it with his amazing sax work. He agreed and the original was born. This version is just me trying to update the old girl. As always, your kindness and time are greatly appreciated. I hope all is well.

at the intro i just sat back and exhaled, this is such a pleasure to listen to, the sax is stellar, THE star of the show. the drums sitting just under are so on point the synth work is great i like the razor saw wave, sound and production are excellent Bear and such a good outro too, top work and a back slap for Ernie,

in the UK Ernie drove the fastest milkcart in the west, its a comedy skit from an old UK comic, Benny Hill, you wouldn,t get away with it today, some of it was close to the knuckle

ShortBusMusic replied 24th Jan 2026 - 1 month ago
Hey brother, thanks so much for stopping by to give this one a listen. Ernie did Slap justice for sure and I think we breathed a little life into the old girl. I loved Benny Hill, what a great show. And you are correct, in these times they would be all over him haha. As always, your time and kindness is appreciated. I will pass the kind feedback on to Ernie as well. I hope all is well.

Seriously, he has real chops, so these kinds of exercises only go to prove how good he really is. Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment. It is greatly appreciated. I hope all is well.

Hi there, really enjoying this. It seems to emanate peace and goodwill somehow. Beautiful chords and guitar. Funny you colab with tumbleweed, I got confused as my first thought on hearing this was that this was his work! Great listen, been struggling to find much I like and want to comment on, at least in featured tracks lately. Cheers Zoot

Hey Zoot, thanks for stopping by. I have collaborated with Ed on a few tunes, and this one would have been much better with Ed on it instead of me, haha. I am glad you enjoyed it and hope it brought a moment of peace for you. As always, your time and kindness are appreciated. I hope all is well.

Hey Bear!!!
What a song and what a "comeback". :-)
Always great to hear stg from our "old" heroes in this site ...
Don't want to say anything about the song, cause I'm happy that you still alive :-) and create things like this. Guitar chill ... Ed flashed from the first seconds of the song... was it a collab???
My friend, music through everything!!!
Fistbump,
Danke

Hey, Danke!! It is so good to hear from you. I am still kicking to my heart doctor's delight haha. Nothing makes one feel better than getting new plumbing in the old heart. No, this wasn't a collaboration with Ed unfortunately. It would sound a lot better if Ed had done the guitar. Anyway, I am reworking some of my old tracks, breathing new life into them I hope. As always it is great to hear from one of Looperman's great artists. I hope life is treating you well old friend. Here's to a belated happy 2026.

Ah, man Ed, that track on SoundCloud is just so damned good. You really are the master of the Strat, best tone on the planet. Honored you found a use for the piano loop. Again, it really is good to hear from you and I am so sorry for your tremendous losses these past few years. I can empathize with your son, I had a quadruple bypass in February of 2023. I'm a lot better than I was because of that surgery. Hope your son is responding well to his operation. Take care Ed. I hope all is well.

Hahaha overdubs is my middle name man. If I get it right first time I generally play it at least a couple more times just out of momentum (and then I screw it up, usually) ;)

I think I am the king of overdubs. My wife is always asking me, "How many times are you going to play that section of that song?" And my reply is always, "Until it's right." Also, I don't think I've ever played anything correctly the first time, haha.

Ed, what a wonderful surprise to see you stopped by for a listen and a cup of coffee (or cold beer). It has been a minute and like you, life has a way of throwing more curves at us than one would deem possible. I sincerely hope you are doing OK, and I also hope you are still playing and recording. I have always considered you in my top 3 guitarists, and top friends as well. Here's to a great 2026. Take care of yourself. I hope all is well.
