So to be honest, I'm not a huge fan of your voice itself... but I've been listening to all of your songs and you've definitely got a great way with composing and writing melodies! About 5 minutes after listening to this song I found myself humming the chorus melody while walking down the hall.
Another tale of my life. It started when I saw a homeless man standing at the end of an exit ramp. He was holding a cardboard sign and accepting "donations". I wondered if that would be me before long, then this song started playing in my head.

Another angry song. My boss once handed me a spreadsheet about cost prices from vendors and said "I don't like the way this looks". I wondered if the upper management looked at salary costs the same way, and that led to this song.

One night I was seated in a lounge chair in my back yard when the thought ocurred to me. This is nice, but is this all there is? Is this the reason I work? Is this the reason I pay bills and worry about the future and make sure my kids do their…
This is probably the darkest song I've ever done, at least as far as lyrical tone goes. Sometimes life just doesn't seem worth the effort. Then I look at my lovely bride and realize that it is.

For me, one of the side effects of unemployment is insomnia. I am the kind of person who worries about things, and often that worry extends into the night time hours. I sang this after a particularly difficult night. The vocals aren't the best…

I listened to Chris's Orwellioan Cameras while watching the video. It got me thinking about the eye watching us and this is what i came up with.............
With his lottery money Reg has invested in becoming a funk star. The other reg came up with the tune and Reg jumped all over the thing......come and get funky with thetwoReg
This has several riffs that remind me of one of my favorite guitarists: Robin Trower. I have several of his CD's from the 70's, and you play as well as he did.

A slightly destructive children's song... But I suspect that many of you have tried some of the things mentioned.
I have a great idea up in my head
Let's try it out this afternoon
We'll tie the dog up to the sled

Well, after a couple of nights of recording, this is my effort for RPM's Holiday Challenge. Personally, O Holy Night is my favorite of all Christmas Songs. I added a little winter love song intro...
COME WALK WITH ME
Come walk with me in the…
Tharek sent me this beautifully played guitar arrangement and told me to have at it with the spirit of Christmas, so I wrote and recorded this little message of hope and peace. Somehow when I write music with and for fellow musicians across the…
For someone who had the full sized G.I. Joe's as a kid, and fought with my brother using them, or shoes, or sticks, or whatever was handy, Joe got plenty of action. But since we had no sister, Joe didn't get any other kind of action. He was sad about that.
Good song, sir.

Illegal Alien Autopsy digs it!

Lovely song-writing. I like the musical arrangement very much also - fits the sentiment in the lyrics very well.
Love your lyric writing, ER. Very engaging vocals too. Excellent RPM album.
Great funky guitar, fella! I hope you found this rpm therapeutic. :-)
Definitely not where I want to be, but I guess I'm stuck here along with most others! Fab horns in the middle section.
You softie. :-) Nice track!
:-) For reasons I do not understand, this seems to be what we've settled for, definitely. Thought-provoking track!
Your album was a joy to listen to. Well done mate!
Love that funky guitar!
Yeah! That guuitar break is stunning.
Yes, it's a little dark, and has a cool beat to it. I like it!
*hands ER some cocoa with extra marshmallow fluff* You poor love. I hope you feel better now!! (I actually like this straight up vocal.)
Ah, great turnaround! Is it the album closer?
That's the attitude, don't let the what nots grind you down. I like the way you often draw from life for your lyrics. Good song.
Cool song - I thought the organ solo was a nice touch.
That Guitar is Awesome!
Woah, class solo!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool tune - The solo was pretty sweet.

So you had some pretty strange babysitters, too? You know you did. ER
So are you a big fan of 1984? Conspiracy theories? Are you taking prozac? Or, are you on to something? ER
Great backbeat on this song. Love the organ. Where are my dancin' shoes? ER
Funny song. Good luck on the next drawing. ER
I like your interpretation of this song. Found myself singing along. Well done. ER

Like this very much. The lyrics are very good, as are the vocals. Nice guitar work, too. ER
You naughty boy, you! And I wish I'd thought of that. ER
This is my favorite from this album. Love the harmonies, and the melody, most of all. ER
You play cards like I do! LOL Love the song. ER
Love this song. The harmonies are the best. ER
I'll have to listen to this again. The first few notes blew my ears away. ER
Bouncy, toe tapping tune you have here. Like it a lot! ER
Another good one. The guitar accompaniment is very different than I would have expected. Very nice indeed. ER
Very nice, Keith. Loved it. ER
Love the piano work on this. Very well done. ER
I know how you feel. I'm day to day as well. Nice accoustic song. ER
Love the harmonies the most on this one. The guitar work was good, too. ER
Unusual take on Jefferson Airplane, to be sure. Nice restrained vocals and guitar work. Well done. ER
