A great composition and performance and you have to hand it to Dik Cadbury - if this was audio only you wouldn't know of the broken bass string - pro playing.
I used to play in a band where our bassist played bass chords - he frequently snapped D strings... However, no plectrums were injured - unlike his fingers...
What a pro Dik Cadbury is. Losing his D string halfway through the song. Must have had to instantly remap his positions and fingering. Not that anyone would have noticed however 'cos he didn't pt a foot wrong.
think the flutes a bit distracting

epic song, one of the most beautiful ever written (not only by steve hackett)
P.S.: the bassist has broken the 2nd string!!!

Steve even has a Floyd Rose on his Les Paul. Nice.

With the flute, the beginning of this song sounds so celtic.
