Ah, back when the internet was young and I downloaded this on floppy to transfer to my computer... I floated away for many repeats and hours to this and The Last Ballad.

I can't believe this song is 4-channel MOD format. Awesome acoustic guitar tune.

I remember this Mod from back in the day and loved it when I saw the name again. This has to be one of my fav's from the past.

Impressive tune! It sounds like a genuine guitar arrangement, which is not often the case with such mods.

truly awesome mod, and it's becoming even more awesome when you find out that such an amazing sound is produced by (!!) a tiny 4 channel mod!!!

This is a classic. Great guitars and flute along with some ambient chords in the background. The part at the end with electric guitar is really nice. If you like ambient soft rock (like I do) then download this NOW! 9.5

WOW! what an amazing module (especially for 1992/93 on an Amiga!)...normally I don't like modules with guitars in them because they just don't sound convincing to me with cheezy pitch bends applied to a sustained, overdriven sample. This module actually sounds like someone who can play guitar well or at least found someone who knew how to play guitar and recorded a succession of riffs, slides, and loops and arranged them in a seemless way. The song has a good, chunky beat and very groovy feel that's somewhere between Acoustic Alchemy and John Mellancamp's 'Jack And Diane', and then transcends into a light, hypnotic 16-beat groove that in my opinion could just go on forever.

The thing I REALLY like is the non-abuse of the arrangement: There's one part near the beginning where Jogeir opens up into a simple, electric guitar solo that sounds like Mike Rutherford from Genesis or Slowhand (Clapton) and it only lasts for about 15 seconds or so - so sad and sweet and you'll never hear it again in the whole song. The fifes are not overdone either - using subtle pitch bends and two-note accents (sampled) and not dominating large parts of the song.

As the review team says - 'if you don't download it - there's something wrong with you.' I say if you don't download it - you will never know what to base the best off of. To add, it's impressive to mix an arrangement like this with only 4 channels! 'Nuff said. Thanks, Jogeir!

WOWIE!! This has got to be one of the best mods I've ever heard! The Guitar samples are of good quality and are mixed in very nicely, and the instrument arrangement here is absolutely fantastic! The song is not repetative or boring, It is lively and fast plus it is very entertaining. From the fast paced tune at the front to the slower conclusion, the song always changes, using different instruments and effects. Jogeir Liljedahl, I solute you! If you don't download this, there is something wrong with you...
