Original instrumental: Sullivan Bay

[islandguitar]

Hello Folks! And a happy 4th of July!

Seems like a "Sullivan Bay Day" here in R.I. so I thought I'd re-post this tune from the CD Autumn's Soul which I first shared about a year ago. This is an upgraded track .. pro mixed/mastered from the CD.

All the best for a happy 4th!,

Always wonderful to hear one of your tunes, Fred! This one is very pretty and sets a lovely, pensive mood. The sound is wonderful!

Happy 4th!

That was excellent Fred!

Steve, Glenn and Barry......thank you guys! Really appreciate it. When I put this one together it took quite a bit of time and I re-wrote the first section at least once to give it more melody. I do "best single take", so it's a live recording with no punch in. I wondered for a while if I could work an acceptable clean track!
Thanks for listening! Happy 4th...........

This is one of my favorites of yours, Fred (actually, they’re all favorites!). Wonderful tune, and I can really appreciate the difficulty of getting a clean take. I really like the backstory as well - my wife and I will visit the Galapagos this fall - I’ll keep Sullivan Bay in mind and hope for a penguin encounter of our own!

Larry.....great to hear from you! Thank you for taking a listen and responding! What a great opportunity to visit the Galapagos for you and your wife. I didn't make the trip as this was a professional tour, but for my wife....life altering......as it is for so many. I'll PM you if she has any thoughts/suggestions.........but I'm sure you've likely gotten tons of advice on this special opportunity.
Thanks again,
Fred
