There's a bridge or a transition in this song that sounds like it's leading into Zebra's "Who's Behind The Door" from the 1980s.

It's his listeners self selecting... RP is a wonderful electic mix. The one thing all this varied music has in common is it hits me in my heart. I'd guess it's not just me...
As I am a classical guitarist, and a chess player, I really liked this piece.

Reminds me of Alex Degrassi
An acoustic guitar, beautifully played, is one of the sweetest sounds on earth.

I feel like that all the time.
No info anywhere? His website is gone?

bella musica molto bravo
M-Mmmmmesmerising.....!😌
Lovely music and especially lovely album cover. I've been doing assemblage art like that for nearly 30 years - it would be very cool to be commissioned to create an album cover.
VERY pretty!  Never heard Tom before.  Quite nice!
Would fit as an instrumental on early Tea Party records

Liking this very much, and in agreement with the melancholy mood.
I'll have to look those up! Cheers {#Cheers}

Definitely and a touch of Doobie's Toulouse street and Pentangle in there. Excellent

No, this is not what I would call an "exciting" tune either, but I have a notion that getting listeners "excited" was not was he was striving for with this song.  It seems more "meditative" to me.
Lovely tune. Very nice album art.

Given that there are an estimated fifty million guitar players on the planet, there will always some better guitar players around.

Guy's got a groove, very good indeed as I sip this amazing Baird Beer Suruga Bay Imperial IPA made in the shadows of Mt.Fuji.

 
Indeed. It also seems to go quite well with my home made IPA. All good.
Lovely!
Nice

What a silly comment that is. Why not appreciate what music does without having to always compare one's ability to another.

And some worse ones, too.
Lovely

Everybody in my church loves this music...

Really gorgeous picking, sweetly ringing open chords; fantastic coming after Neil's Unknown Legend!
was that a shot of an El Kabong festival in the HD picture show?

Not sure, his last comment was Oct 19th.  Usually had something nice to say.  Both he and Cynaera are sadly missed.
 
I think it's an interesting sign of the times.  People we have never met, but we get to converse with, just disappear.  In Cynaera's case Romeo was able to let us know that she passed away.  I did some internet searching for Romeo but was not able to find anything.

One way or another, I hope he's okay.
 
I was wondering where he's been too, and just thinking the same thing — interesting that even though it's an anonymous online forum, it really is a community. 

I have seen others post comments that Romeo has been banned.  Just speculation on their part?  I can't understand why that would happen, his comments were always positive in nature, for the most part.  Excessive quantity of redundant comments maybe?

EDIT:  Oh, okay - now I found there were some crazy-strange postings he did under various forum threads (I never look at those, only song postings).
