Winter Solstice

When the G days are short, and the C evening’s so D long
And the C wind is D shaking the G trees
When the cold snow crunches C beneath your D feet
And your C cheeks are D…
So gorgeous, I tremble in awe as I listen. Remarkable lyrics, and the new vocals and additional flute are magical as well and appropriate for this fantastic song. You're the man!

I just bought a new Gibson SG Standard guitar with P90 pickups. I bought it after listening to Steve Krell's Gibson Gold Top with P90's.
Here is my first recording with the guitar.

Hey, everyone's getting into P90s! (Mine are in an Explorer - kind of an incongruous mix, but sounds great when when I can get up the strength to put it on!)
The SG sounds FAB!! And it's a very cool song... all sentimental guitarists know exactly what you mean :)

You did a great job capturing the sentiment.
I'd been following the Euro horsemeat scandal since it broke in the UK some time ago. But the songwriter in me didn't react until Ikea found pony in their Swedish meatballs the other day.

Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

Yes, I like less reverb, but who am I to know. I thought you got a more natural sound on the other setting.
They're both good, and if there wasn't the request for comparison, the differences would have gone unnoticed.
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…
rpm #7,, i think this will be the overture, to a small midi orchestral suite, which i hope will finish up as my remaining 3 pieces for this years rpm, but well see how that goes,, thanks for all the helpful comments i have received on this project…

I like how this bounces along.
Oh Yeah! I'm hungry for more now.
Me and My Kin like your song Big Much. Oops, I pushed the "play" button again. First Rate Stan !!!!
I love it, and I can definitely relate to it. This is getting to be a long winter. It's nice to hear a mandolin around here.
You are really creating yourself an RPM Challenge masterpiece. It's another beautiful contribution.
I thought I heard a little Aaron Copland in there. It's beautiful

The reverb setting is a success to my ears. Nice Cello and overall piece.
Well done! You recorded a great sound on your acoustic guitar, and the vocal harmony gives me goose bumps.
Breathtaking Good tension and resolution with captivating arrangement. Nice one Richard.
I like this. Great lyrics combined with simplicity.
