When I first came up with this instrumental piece, it reminded me of rabbit hunting with my ol' man when I was a kid: fresh air, clear skies, the brush waving in the breeze, the beagle dogs barking and baying, and those white tails bounding to and fro.
When I first played it for Chris, he immediately added some tasty slide guitar, and that was all she wrote! (Well, until I decided to have Roger provide some bottom end on his Tuba ...)
With no words other than the title, it paints a very distinct picture!
