I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…

A little more rock and roll than my normal mellow vibe. I might play around with this some more, but for now, it is what is :)
Guitar, bass, bodhran, vocals, and a casio keyboard drumkit.
Just in time for St Patrick's Day . . . . And with any luck we might have a bonus "LIVE" Leprechaun track coming soon. The Minnesota Coffee table met and recorded a fun version last night.

Based on a riff brought back to life after many years, and remembrance of a childhood fever dream. Wrap this in the context of the past two years and this is the musical result.
Sometimes life knocks you down and decides to kick a few times for good measure. It can be hard to push though at times, but it’s important to persevere because it can and will get better. This is a song about staying strong and remaining hopeful…
Since venturing beyond twenty atmospheres, our intrepid explorers were assumed lost forever. Never underestimate the human spirit and instinct for survival, especially when it’s fueled by a defiant shanty.
I’ll never understand those who are famous for being famous, and I honestly don’t care to. Unqualified influencers and fake internet gurus, this one's for you.
Faved in the first 20 seconds... I had read the blurb by then, YESSS, so I probably would have faved it no matter what it sounded like!!! lol ... It sounds cool too, so phew!
This song was written and recorded on Garageband during the month of February, 2022 as my submission to the RPM Challenge. It's a rough draft that I'll continue to work on in the future. Please forgive the recording quality...(I'm still learning…
(COVID Salute)
You can pick 'em, you can lick 'em, you can roll them in a ball
You can stack 'em up like waffles 'till they're forty feet tall
You can wipe on your sleeve, you can flick 'em at your friends
You could blow them in a tissue…
If tomorrow you find yourself far away from me
Running to another city
If you don't have the time to hide away with me
Disappear into the scenery
Am I no longer worth
The effort to search
For the life we were dreaming
For the love we…
If this song doesn't grab me as much as it's predecessors (lyrically it does), it's given me a moment to catch my breath and say how much I like the instrumentation on these tracks. Love the little slide break here.
I know sometimes things just ain't right
Like oil and water we survive
Y'know I don't hate you
Maybe we're too much alike
Push and pull
We'll survive
We're not getting younger these days
And we're both sure and set in our ways
We fight…
Broken things on my window sill
Remind me every day
Of my constant lean towards failure
Always getting in my way
Perpetual disappointment
I never follow through
Can't count on me for nothing
I'll only disappoint you
There's a war in…

Yeah! merry merry merry Christmas :)
Merry Christmas! :)
Woah! Wasn't expecting that! But yeah - play around with it some more. It's got a cool vibe.
Wow! I wanted to get away but I couldn't! That's really powerful... OK, now I need to go listen to 2112 as an antidote!
You'll be needing some of the black stuff with that one :)
Assuming it is hopeful! That's how I'm hearing/feeling it :)
Cool song. I like the imagery and the hopeful end to the verses.
Love it. This whole set (Abyss) is pretty inspiring - the ideas holding it together, the arrangements and recording, nice one.
Yessss. Utterly brilliant.
Oh yeah. Love it.

That's a gorgeous song.
Yeah, why not :)
Nice one.
Super RPM, well done. I shall have a listen to last year's later. Many thanks for posting these.
