Mike's fun rockabilly follow-up to Scammers, Spammers, and Cons from a previous RPM Challenge.
We recorded the drums, bass, one rhythm guitar track, and a scratch vocal take live off the floor, then added the other guitar tracks and a clean…
Another lovely song from Leum. He's prolific, that one is!
It was fun to collaborate on lyrical tweaks for this one, working together to tighten up a solid draft into a rich, compact song.
For recording, we used a couple of condenser mics…
Finally got around to connecting several electronic items on my side desk - Kawai R-50e drum machine from around 1995, Fostex X-18 4-track tape recorder from a couple of years earlier than that (I think), a Korg volca keys from 2021, and a handful…
Time was when I used to see you hiding
Your face so clear amongst the crowd
Time was I could sense you in the same room
As if you'd called my name out loud
Don't kid yourself, you've not got ESP
Your face so clear amongst the crowd
I'd…
Sometimes a joke gets out of hand. This one is some combination of many many MANY inside jokes from the group on the RPMChallenge slack group, aka Conference of Mayors or Church of England, depending on the project.
The shortest version is that…
The B-side for my July 30DaySongs submission is a cover of a tune I've loved since it came out way back in 1982. Wilsun has been having a rough go if it lately and I recorded this to hopefully cheer him up for a bit.

Lots of loud noise going on with the refurbishment of the condo I live in, so thought I would haul out the horn and honk along. Been away for a couple of weeks working on a 50th anniversary restaging of David Tudor's Rainforest IV in Kingston…
nice... this is great --- I hope the condo is made better --- I never really liked that jackhammer sounds but never thought to play alongside the jackhammer .. great idea .. :)

It sounds like it's as old as the hills and I should be able to find Doc Watson or the Carter family. This is another one of yours that Joan Baez could really sing. I'm going to bug you for the full chords on this one.
IF I WRITE A LETTER TO YOU - Key of G
If I write a letter to you
Tell me who will I write to

Tell me who would not go to
A friend or a foe…

Good for you !!!
This is another good for the happy song list, nice rhythm and a nice, melancholy, sentiment. Well done.
