Poignant and heartfelt for sure, Larry. So, so sad, My Friend. Thoughts are with you. Hope you can somehow keep only the happiest and most treasured memories close to you to offer some form of coping and relief.

A real heartfelt piece of music...sorry for the loss of your Brother.

Beautiful work Larry. My best wishes and prayers are with you!

My day spent driving home thinking of my brother, and during the entire trip, there was Heaven Crying Snow and Ice and Freezing Rain in the distance. During my journey I listened to his favorite music and my heart hardened. The blues were your soul. Senselessly murdered, my God. Rest dear Soul. Rest in Peace and sing your heart out with Stevie and the lot. We miss you dear friend. My Dear Brother, My Heart Aches

And Heaven Cried Snow and Ice and Rain

I am always open to collaboration :-)) Please comment good or bad, always something to learn and thanks for your ears :-) #LarsLooperMan

About 10 years ago I began composing again. There are many reasons, but after a few tunes I found that people were liking them. Today's VSTs and DAWs afford you that opportunity to express yourself just like a big recording studio. The SC community has helped me improve my work and I do thank them.

So this journey began with my love of classics and alternative genre's of music. When inspired I begin to compose and sometimes it happens quickly and sometimes it happens when it happens.

I am inclined to record with very little or no compression at all. So crank it up so you can hear all of the subtle nuances. Sometimes I mix for 12 hours or more at once to find those harmonizations that tickle that hair in your ear. This is just my way of reaching out and touching my listeners. I am very appreciative that so many Soundclouders have reached out and mentored this work. I invite those comments as it only makes the music that much better, so thanks!

I am influenced by many. I would say that it ranges from Henry Mancini to Herb Alpert to Led Zeppelin to Andreas Vollenweider to Weather Report to Acoustic Alchemy. Even Captain Beyond or classical elements! Now it is my turn to take what is inside and share it.

It is kind of scary to be here with so many talented professionals and skilled musician's. Not to mention that the production quality is a happy surprise.

I am here to share, but also, to learn. So, if you think I went awry then tell and teach me. I have a very blank canvas and hope that we can share a moment together. Boy oh boy, have I been learning! Thanks to all of you who are so kind with your time!

More later, when I have something brilliant, stupid, or silly to say.

BTW, if I won the lottery I would travel the world half the time collaborating away and then the other half would be spent trying to help other people's dreams come true. :-))
