Couldn't make it to do an entry myself  But there is alwas a next time.

5pts @Springywheel , a bit medieval, light open airy tune. Very different from the usuals. Very much to my liking.
3pts @Stratman3142 , it just sounds right. The snappiness with the right amount of grit really makes this riff pop out. 
1pt @DigitalDave , very nice flow, very smooth sound.

Tricky to choose because they're radically different and both great.

5 points : @Springywheel : Nice riff. Cinematic. Love that sparkly bright guitar sound. How did you get that?
3 points : @DigitalDave : Really like the execution of the lick and the 'feel'. Lovely swing and, as said earlier, a really nice flow.

Springywheel

5 - @DigitalDave - Nicely phrased that...love the little run the end.

3 - @stratman3142 - I can imagine mark knopfler singing over that. Great riff. 

Stratman, I'm playin straight through a fender 65 reverb deluxe RI with a strat... Lots of clean headroom, and very loud, so I have it running through a load box direct to interface. 

DigitalDave

5pts @Springywheel - real nice momentum to it - Eric Johnson meets Pink Floyd vibe
3 pts @stratman3142 - great riff and a warm vintage sound, instantly transported to the deep south
