RHP did some incredible wonderful songs - unfortunately, this one is not among those.

6:42 of torture.  When he got to the lyric of "your blood red eyes", I knew I would have to reach through the radio and throttle him to within an inch of his narcoleptic life.  Hell would be this song played over and over.

I'm not comparing this to anything else - just surfing the wave. And wow, what a great groove... I couldn't tell you what slipstream I'm on, but it's pretty good, so I think I'll just stay on it.... {#Sunny}

Oh wow- this song brings back memories of the 90's.

Red House Painters following Nick Drake seems to be one of the the saddest sets I've ever heard.  Why not finish it up with "Season in the Sun?"  ;)

Nice vibe. I also like their "Have you forgotten" song.

Should by followed by David Gilmour's The Narrow Way from Pink Floyd's Ummagumma.

Late at work, been staring at the screen all day, eyes swimming, relying on RP to keep me awake for these last bits of coding, and this number comes on. I feel sleepy, so sleepy, my eyelids are drooping, my vital functions slowing down, my head sagging, Morpheus awaits me with open arms, but I hit the mute just in time before the overwhelming soporiphicness (is there such a word?) puts me into a deep slumber. Truly this is the very definition of "ho-hum". A solid 3 from the Nottingham jury.

Very pretty song, until near the end and that screeching electric guitar came in.

Excellent tuning and playing. If I tried to do this, it would be all plunky and wonky toned. This is extremely difficult to make sound good. He makes it sound so easy.
