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…

Okay -- I'm an RPMer and this song is the one you said wanted electric guitar -- I'm going to do it -- watch me go -- this song is really powerful. Hope I get the words right . .

Musta been December cause the air mighty cold
A family was moving in, further down the road
They were not the colour of the others in the street
All the kids were laughing at the trainers on their feet
I was only young and so I guess I laughed…
glad you like it buddy.. was one of my favourites off the album as a song but a couple o things went astray during recording and pissed on it a bit. If I wasnt lazy I'd re-record it but yeah.. BANJO!!!

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…

Well I been playing the blues for so long
Kinda feel like playing jazz x 2
I dig the random instrumentation.
Play this in eight over three and a half
I been playing the blues for so long, make me feel like tryna rap x 2
I think I'll call…
Tell me can you teach me bout your finely written poetry
Dont care about the content I just want to make em notice me
Such a fine hand they'd say wooo, study it closely
Been practicing all day I think I'm ready least I aughta be.
Caligraphy…
I heard a story about you
I didnt want it to be true
But it felt like it might
You, well it was all about you
and how the things that you do
Seem strangely undone
And life doesnt help out the weak
A lifetime tends to bring you some…

this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks
I'm tired now, and I think I'll take a few days off from RPM. I need one more tune and that shouldn't be to tough to do.
Thanks everyone,
I'll be in touch soon.

Something you don't often hear from me and that's
straight drummin'. On this track I left the
original L/R kit track because it just sounded
more raw and nasty. Listen close and you'll hear different levels on the high hat. Plus, you can…
This is brilliant. I need to give this album a proper listen once I've wrapped up the challenge (nearly there!) - in fact I need to listen to loads of the finished articles.. anyone know if there will be a big page of them like last year... Su?!
Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
An odd tune - took time to grow on me but I like it. Still a little sick, hence the froglike vocals and negligent production.
A song about the Rock of Gibraltar
All done on the Boss Micro BR
Long Goodbyes
You say your life is disgusting…
wouldnt have thought that would work.. mario on his keyboard and luigi playin mad ass drums.. it does though, infectious, and its going to be playin in my head when i try and sleep tonight.. thanks for that ;)
Based around a fragment I came up with around 10 years ago in University believe it or not, while I was learning to play guitar. As you can see, I was homesick. :) Thanks so much to Gary for adding a bit of spice with the bass, lead guitar and…
A folky ballad about the trials and tribulations that happen during home recording, in this particular case using a Boss microBR.

Let me tell you all a story, most of it is true,
a strange and twisted…
im living this song at the momment! great track.. reminds me of what i like about shel silverstein/dr. hook. Also shades of Nilsson when he was feeling jovial.. I love that stuff! Loving the crazy middle section too.. Thanks for the comments by the way.. much appreciated!
Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
Comments on A Bit More Better Productions's stuff
Nice tune Alex. Reminds me a bit of mid period John Cale - which is no bad thing in my world!
Nice CD Alex, Good work!
Hi there Leif. great news! The lyrics are in the about column.. look forward to hearing the outcome!

perfect accompaniment to my relaxing sunday morning bathtime.. cheers!
very dreamy.. conjures a nice image
What a great idea this is.. the melody and the delivery of it contrast perfectly to create something unique. chipper
charming.. very..
nothing valuable to offer critique wise i'm afraid, other than to say that as usual this was thoroughly enjoyed.
reminds me of something.. think it might be corpses in their mouths by ian brown.. but only in a mild way.. great feel.. very delicate
great playing chappy.. lovely stuff

love hearing harmonica in something this dark and heavy.. brilliant. great sound on the riff too. nice one chappy!
this is class! reminds me of some of the kinks stuff.. perfick
this is brilliant. great sound to it (especially the vocals). and the lyrics are class
wouldnt have thought that would work.. mario on his keyboard and luigi playin mad ass drums.. it does though, infectious, and its going to be playin in my head when i try and sleep tonight.. thanks for that ;)
wow.. that was incredible.
here's the first Gary!! Thanks again so much for all the help...
i like rhythm track A, I like rhythm track B, but which is better? There's only one way to find out.. fight!!
