Hey! Greetings from Germany. Thanks for checking out our music. There’s definitely a difference in style. I really like your intimate and personal sound.
The percussiveness is what I like about this song.
Exploring different styles of music is what makes listening to RPM Radio so much fun!
Is THIS why I didn't get her???? I was certain Santa had her wrapped up ready for me this time and then on the day it was just the usual stuff under the tree
All I used here was the Yamaha nylon string. No effects, no other instruments, just was how the mic picked up what I was doing. I wish I had gone longer.
You might not believe this but, on all the tracks except "Lookin' For Love" I used an old Yamaha nylon string guitar. Rhythm instruments when used where either an old kick drum pedal against some packing foam that is screwed to the back of my old bass amp cab (cab isn't being used), stomping a kids tambourine or just my foot bumping on the floor (which I didn't realize until later was being picked up by the mic). Thanks much for listening :)
A lifetime of laughter when you were just kids
And all that came after the silly things you both did
Those times are long, long gone like they ran off and hid
Then the world got bigger with other places to play
And getting so caught up in…
A nice authentic folk song. Nice job all around. Came across you via RPM checking out similar artists to me. Keep up the good work over in Windsor,VT. :-}
Song 6 for my 2024 RPM challenge. Got the guitar and bass out for this one. It's a song with a lot of dissonance and so is kind of weird. But here it is anyways. Definitely not for everyone's ears.
Anything, anything you say…
Anything…
Song 5 for RPM 2024. Sat at our piano for this one and got a bit carried away!
More of an atmospheric piece and the title track of my RPM "album". I love doing vocal harmonies (I grew up on CSNY). Thanks to anyone who listens :)
Oh…
A simple folk style song based off the Velvet Underground's "New Age".
I was given the task to write a song quickly, by no less than a pretty girl I was talking to at the time. The influence is apparent, perhaps theft, but hopefully Dylanesque…
A happy song about being left by your no-good spouse. There's a word for the attitude in this song but I can't think of it right now ...
this is now a tidied up version 18/3/09
An old time fiddle tune without the fiddle, or the tune, really, so the vocal has to carry it, and it has that lovely raw propulsion. Written and recorded in an hour.
Sassy Nation version!
Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
Inspired by a gift from my Cousin Danita, a bird whistle.

Very cool. Thanks for the comments. Yeah get a reso! Gretsch has an inexpensive one. Keep on busking!

Cool song and that stripped back accompaniment works well. You have a great timbre in your voice.

It's a cool "stomp". We liked it (me and Mrs R) - does sound like you're having fun.

You are in excellent company, I am certain.
Love it!

Cool... a little reggae. Nice !
Wow, you really got the dissonance working to your advantage. Good job. Some push and pull as well. Weird yup, but my ears like it.
Yeah, I hear the CSNY in this. Also a nice harmony that sounds familiar that I can't quite place... you got me thinking:-}
This is cool, kind of reminds me of Mandolin Orange. Well put together.
Yup, "the influence is apparent". Well done.
Traditional vibe is great on this. Good job.
Cool, I like this. Your accent fits in well. Nice. :-}
:-} Nice, fun listen.
Ain't this all true, huh? Nice lyrics.
12 sugars ??!!!!
Nice old style song. Harmonies, space in the strumming works. :-]
Nice power in this one. Acoustic guitar with distortion? I like it :}
Cool, kind of a Violent Femmes riff. :}
Back-at-ya sassy. Well done :-)
This is really cool !!!
Cool---- the rough guitar and vocals fit the mix nice :-)
Nice. Kind of folk/country with an old world sound. Do more :-]
