Wow! This was a pleasure to watch. A great song with a lot of depth, musically. I’ve always loved this song and your arrangement is just fantastic, as is your playing.

Well thought and played as expected. Personally I prefer much less reverb however so that the subtleties of the dynamics and tonal flavors the guitar has to offer come through.

Thank you Jay, I am very glad you enjoyed it!
It is a fun piece to play, and it was challenging to try to bring all the complexities of the added textures, as every instrument was playing different things and adding to the overall harmony.

Hi Derek, many thanks! I knew it was a lot of reverb, but I decided to go with it just as to get closer to the 80's sound, so it was deliberate. I understand and agree with you though, and in general, I try not to use much reverb.
