Guest's got a good point...why are there no comments!? Love this, Alex - most have missed it during crazy Feb. Looking forward to hearing a lot more from you!
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…
[Thanks to Helen and Colin for coming to my aid with the warblings! :) ]
When You Least Expect It
And you're out to dry
And its all too hectic
Thats when it comes x 2
And it feels electric
And you feel alive
Cos when you least expect…

really like the mix of the raw chug and the backing vocal woo type bits on this one. Tone of your vocal is an asset too, and you can really hear it on this one. A very natural advantage that! Like the more speaky part especially.
this is a song that came from the pain of dealing with idiots that just dont get it on a daily basis. newest mix tries to deal with vocal vs instruments imbalance.
theres alot of idiots out there to write about! I often feel lucky to have music to vent or else I dont know where I'd be.
Really catchy melody here. Think that ones gonna still be with me come tea time
My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…
One more to go and I'm slapping them together.
This is 3 layered drum loops. Some dupes and some play along.
I've managed to grow a huge beard this RPM.
I think I'm starting to look like Gandolf. :)
The same name calls me father
Reject the pharaohs promise
Hit one and feign the other
Another pyramid to build
The sky rejects the other
Full frontal luminescent
Hit twice but feeling nothing
Another suicide dispenser
Feel smaller shame the pathetic…
RPM 2011
Seasons start to change without much worry
Ordinary days no reason to remain
The clouds will force the rain realize its glory
Nothing keeps us sane better start to hurry
Slow monkey cabin fever
Free clinic dirty needle
They’ve gone…
RPM 2011
Wait for the room to focus
Feeling around for closure
The whiteness of my skin
The pale reflecting eyes
The beaty of total darkness
Move to the door and open
Room after room of sorrow
Breathing through your mouth
Flooding from your eyes…
Final version
Guitar, mandolin and voice.
this doesn't fit with my rpm project AT ALL so i may not use it but i like the way it came out. I recorded the music for Bethan Mathis' RPM project but she didn't have time to use it (her album is…
EDIT final version now posted and the page turning is gone but i left this intro as is in case anyone is reading the comments. Does anyone read the comments? or the intro?
i turn a page somewhere in the middle of all this - you'd think i would…
nice feel to that. lovely guitar.. really dreamy, atmospheric.. sent me somewhere. somewhere cold, and windy. think it was the mountain on a winters day. was raining too. refreshing though so ta
Final version
Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.
track nine, or at least…

Really like this!
I have to imagine that you count Rick Danko & Richard Manuel as influences.... Great lyrics & vocals!!!
Wow, this is reminiscent of some of The Band's best work.... and that's really saying something! Well done!!
one of my favorites!
how do you record your songs??
Very classy. Love it.

Great song Mr. Moody. Excellent vox on this one.
Alex, I need to listen to you a lot more.

Wow! great voice! This is great! Really like the percussion in this too. It has a great mix as well. Nice work!
Yes! This is a great tune!
love it! Amazing intro..slowly goes into a groove. Nice breakdown into chorus. Sounds like a song from the 60's. esp with the claps.
Great song man! Love all the little background things going on
this is fantastic!
like it, its got some punch to it.

very different.. and very nice. great vocal. like this alot

I love the chords in the chorus in this.. dark, but brilliant. Especially good use of your vocal in the verse and the chorus is a real pay off. Sold.
