Reach Out
Try and touch the things that fear you most
See how they can disappear as ghosts
Watch them fade away as you draw near,
Its coming clear
The pain behind the fear – is gone
Its time for you to start now feeling right
To feel you body…

I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that.
Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.

Another RPM2012 preview ... this one is a bit of on the "poppy/jazzy" side (well, at least this that's as far as I dare venture ...), enjoy ... lyrics:
Sit tight, upright

Your back against the wall
And as you…

A song about vanity and how it can drive one to a false sense of supremacy and righteousness … and how the simplicity of the forces of nature can challenge this predicament …

I think this song is about falling in love ... the way attraction can be a sort of a shortcut ... and the way real love feels.
I'm working on this track as part of my RPM/2012 effort. This version is simply the first cut recorded on my iPhone…

A story about the search for leader. People, independent as they are, often look for someone to tell them what to do. In their quest they will often go for a person who was just passing by and was never planing on leading anyone ... Things get…
You know how it is when you look around, trying to figure out what everyone is doing and how they lead their live, looking for an answer to how you should run your own ... don't ... otherwise, you'll wind up with a life that is just a cut-and…
time goes by, we never notice til we die
this is the why, the how the where the goodbye
maybe the preacher told you right from wrong
maybe you think the wait is far too long
to worry your head with every little thing

Back from my holiday in the Lakes and couldn't wait to start Jamming with Les in Dm……. to one of the Reverends Backers. The Reverend Mike is giving me guitar lessons and this is number 3……..Two guitar tracks fighting for supremacy…..hope you enjoy…
As turning the pages of memory, randomly and lento. All that I know, is seen not as it was actually, but with age and experience (...dusted?). How can I forget? Do I need to?

Lets Fly (Lyrics)
Everybody's laughing but I feel like to cry
As I watch the party pass us by
I don't know what to think or what to do
Baby…
This is a happy song ... or at least that's what comes across on my side ... nice and light ... did you double your voice? ... It seems all of my songs a rather "sad" ... nice to loosen up a bit
Well Reg has just realised that he keep making the same mistakes with his relationships as he always has....the first song from the Newly built cellar.....Jim just had to jump o this one............
Hello pain my old friend it's so nice to see…
this is almost meditational ... maybe because I seek progression in tracks, the I found the progression so miniature and hidden away ... the i LOVED it
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
Thanx Andrew! ... yes, same vocal track ... I cleaned it a bit by tweaking with the samples, reducing amplitude around pops, but could not get rid of it completely ... and no, I didn't use a shield and I regret it, 'cause I rarely go back and record a tune ... we'll have to win the battle with this one ... I'm so happy you like this ... using it as one of my demo tracks now for US tour booking. Cheers
A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…

You say
I doesn’t matter what I say
All the time we spent is gone now
Taken out
You cry
I'm not even asking why
Your head's up in the sky now
Your alive
When I ask you to explain…
Hey guys ... thank you all for your comments ... this is heart warming and insightful .. I'm actually planning an alternative mix for this one so I might loose or reduce the electric guitar track ... as to the popping on the vox, you are absolutely right ... there is also way too much bass ... I will work on it and re-post ... you are of great support ... keep on commenting. xxx Dror
RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…

sounding like nick drake can never be a bad thing!
Beautiful.
I'm really impressed with the mastering on your RPM 2012 album. It sounds very professional. Every instrument sounds crisp and clear.
I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that. Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.
