Whoa - this is Bruce Cockburn? Never would have guessed, either. (Y'all catch the echo thingy there? Oh never mind.)

I was thinking the same thing. Michael Hedges with tape delay and reverb. I love it. Well done Bruce. This is now my favorite work of yours. |

When I heard the first few notes, especially those first few trills, I had a feeling it was Bruce - kind of like the intro to "Pacing the Cage". Anyhow, nicely done, Cockburn.

Think before you post - at least where Bruce Cockburn is concerned. His name might be the source of freshman jokes, but his music is far from juvenile.
Just sayin'....

Can't enjoy this... too easy. I like the man, but repetitive delayed guitar gets old fast no matter who's playing. At best, it's tiresome. At worst, it's guitar wanking. |

It's like the echo of the last note wraps itself around the next note... mmhmm...

When he was young, John Martyn used the same effects in live gigs. It was mesmerizing.

I view his use of delay and verb as a second musical instrument in its own right - which he just happens to 'play' with a guitar. The music is made through a combination of him understanding how his acoustic guitar produces sound, and how the echo and delay affects the dry sound and creates something different out the other side. For me it's similar to the Beatles using tape loops and manually slowing the reel with a finger in realtime to achieve some cazy effects.

I heard Bruce Cockburn play this at a club in Carrboro a few years ago. Mesmerizing performance that motivated me to buy the CD. Nice to hear it on RP.

Sounds like Bruce has heard a few versions of the dead's "the other one" - sure a lot of similar sound in there!

Saw Bruce last year at the Clarke Theatre - what a show! He performed this track also - it was awesome to see it and hear it done live!

Perfect song for hearing while in a hammock in the shade, sipping a vodka tonic on a warm and breezy day...
