Thanks, Greg. The weird sounds in the intro are coming from my new delay pedal... it's also provided the effect used on the "lead" guitar parts. I love this thing, it will definitely have an impact on the sound of my entire RPM album!

Thanks, jip & WG!! STill don't think I've done it quite as good as it deserves.... This was my third attempt (so far) and I feel I'm getting closer...

Through fields of clover burning brightly
Fire in the distance, fire in my mind
Pinwheel kaleidoscope…

In the darkness
I walk alone
Eternal solitude
My only home
And the path I follow
Towards the unknown
Is a path that's laid
For my steps alone
In the morning…

Here comes my life again on the upswing
feels like I've been down
for so long
like a carnival ride
I'm not scared of the heights
as much as the ground below…

You're livin' hard
And I understand
You have my word
I won't make demands
There's a feelin'
I got about you
And we'll soon find out
If the feelin's true…
Hi Mike,
I have not really done any recording since RPM 2012. However, I should be back this year.
BTW, digging this album right now. Nice spare arrangements fit your vocal style well.

Once when I was three
You asked me
to show you something
I pointed upwards into the sky
And I asked if ever you wondered
why they hang up there, the stars…
Old Paint Ver.II
Continued from Old Paint Version I............
So, I plugged in the cat eater, hit distort and it took on a whole new feel.
I added bass(finger is tore up now), more drums, and low level fuzzed up leads.
The ghost…
Wow, this is one of my all-time favorites of all your stuff I've ever heard, and that's really saying something! Songs like this (which might never have been created otherwise) are just one of the many reasons I love RPM...
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…
Reminds me of Deep Purple, one of my all-time favorite bands!
I don't know how to insert the little headbangin' emoticon here, but do know that I am throwin' the devil horns and rockin' out!
I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…
What a fun fourth of July this was... and I love the background sound of fireworks in this! Really brings it back to me.
This live track was recorded by my dearly departed friend, Hippie Mark. He was far and away our number one fan & I miss him more than words can say. ~ Michael
What we are is mostly water
On our way back to the sea
I have made this trip so many times
I'm just glad you're here with me
Fall alone or fall together
Either way we will be one
You and me, we will reach the sea
And have need for names no more…

> Great song altogether. Fabulous guitar and vocals!
Again, it's all props to my buddy Chris. His playing, arranging, and singing never failed to blow me away... He's one of a kind, and I sure miss hanging with him - and always miss him especially when I sit down to write or record a song.

Thanks man! One of the few positive songs on that record... I really liked that one. May need to revive it! ~ Michael

Chris Mitchell, man. I can never give that dude enough props. He's just a killer guitar player, what else can I say?

Thanks, Alex! What a great compliment coming from such a talented musician as yourself! And yes, of course.... er, how far down the line? :-)

Oh, I'm a believer. I can't count the times I've seen music transcend the boundaries of time and space in just such a manner! :-)
Cheers!
Excellent! Reminds me of the mood of Neil Young's Dead Man soundtrack, but like Bethan said, more of an oriental feel... It conjured up an image in my mind of futuristic Ninjurais silently stealing into an ancient abandoned city from the cover of the encroaching jungle.
Funny story about the ending: my MacBook froze up while recording but I decided to keep hitting keys, and when it recovered I had that sparkly sound. It's probably my favourite thing I've ever accidentally created.

Great stuff Man! Love the guitar sounds and lyrics
The guitar sounds great man. Nice leads too.
Thanks, Greg. The weird sounds in the intro are coming from my new delay pedal... it's also provided the effect used on the "lead" guitar parts. I love this thing, it will definitely have an impact on the sound of my entire RPM album!
Interesting start to the song. Nice song! Good start to RPM Challenge 2014.
Thanks, jip & WG!! STill don't think I've done it quite as good as it deserves.... This was my third attempt (so far) and I feel I'm getting closer...
Thanks for listening, Norm & RSS!
Oh so very nice!
Awesome version. Love it ~WG
Lovely song.
NIce track!
Fuck the mean time. In the meantime, I'm going to let heaven pour all over everyone I love. Thanks for reminding me.
Ahh. Like a warm bath, rare, but delightful, my moments with Street invigorate me.
Nice man.
excellent!, not sure why but has a doors feel, again excellent indeed!
Really has an endless summer vibe. Definitely...warm beach, crashing waves
Thanks, Dave! :-)
Too damned sweet!

Hiya - I enjoyed listening to these. Cheers.
