OK, this is a bit of a departure for me - posting songwriting demos.
This is a one mic recording made this morning in the living room, touch of reverbs…
This song is the feeling of having your life speed around you while you only catch glimpes of half remembered sights and sounds. A feeling of getting through to start it again.
Short and sweet like the apple pie! I always do a collab every year with our senior songwriter (Mr Cooperider aged 85) . I'm getting on a bit myself but he gives me the inspiration that i can bug you all for many more years to come! Ukulele…
Bonus points if you can figure out what this song is about before the end of the first verse.

Starting out on Sunday morning, nothing else to do
Getting right through 1 dash 1, moving right…
Can you hear me?
Can you see my screen?
I'm explaining
Exactly what I mean
There's an error on the next slide, and I hope that you will bear with me
15 minutes
Read it word-for-word
You'll be reading
Exactly what you heard
I will…

I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.
Foolishly, I thought it would only take a week or so to record... I was originally expecting…
Love it - also the era it is from! I hear the Bron-Y-Aur Stomp but only because you mention it (that is one of my favourite Zeppelin songs). Fun and great musicianship truly.

Ah! I now read your post....that challenge seems more zen :). I also like that emphasis on the song writing part. You're off to a fabulous start! PS thanks for listening to my stuff - much appreciated. ONWARD WE GO! lol

Wow - glad I found you. I'll chime in with the other comments - that is an amazing demo! The raw guitar and voice gives it an intimate feeling (befitting of the song). Well done! Now I'm listening to the other song that came up....really professional!
Song 2 for the RPM Challenge. Wrote this at the piano and then had fun trying all sorts of spontaneous vocal harmonies. Switching time signatures for the chorus made for some challenging recording!
Song 3 of RPM 2022. For the many tortured artists I've met with a bit of a dance spin to it. Most of my songs are unintentional and unplanned....they just happen. Thanks to anyone who's listening!! :)

I love the raw quality of your vocals and just your guitar. Really powerful indeed. Your lyrics touch that place of remembrance of a long ago friend. What might they be like had they stayed around…. Love it!!

Hello, Roger I like the vocal undoubled, seems more intimate Oh I saw an ECO 12 string they are rare around here.
Beautiful
That’s a great sounding demo Andrew! I share your thoughts on RPM. I did it for several years, but now I would rather take my time.
I plan on using this in the RPM Challange but not sure how to do it from here
Please check out The Big Red Apple from srcoops
Lovely just lovely!
Always like your blues! Another good one indeed.

What a fun song! Great vibe too. Love the harmonica or melodica maybe. May your RPM month continue smoothly - off to a great start.
