I had a lot of help on this gentle number about healing. Sylvia provides lovely angelic vocals, perfect for the delicate feel of the song. And Rick was his usual generous self, offering his piano and bass chops, along with general mixing and video making know-how. "MABH" wouldn't be half the song it is without their assistance. Please give their channels a look-see, you will find a world of talent on both.

Ron from channel RHopen was generous enough to provide some feedback along the way. Also, this song originated in a dream with youtuber Doug Payne (coomadoug) as the singer. I actually tried to enlist him for the vocals in this mix, but he regretably was busy. You'll have to suffer through my singing instead! If you like this song, there is a good chance you'll appreciate Doug's style. http://www.youtube.com/user/rhopen http://www.youtube.com/user/coomadoug Lastly, my daughter took the photos of the guitar that appear in the second verse. Thank you Angelika! And thank you for listening/commenting/rating/sharing. I really appreciate the support.
