Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…
A little fun riff that came from noodling on my Epi whilst watching the idiot box one night. It's kind of written for a friend who is a little lost in a self-imposed exile from life.
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Just stopped by for a listen. I agree with the lyrics on this. Seems to me, based on what I've heard, that the good Lord takes us all as we are. At least I hope he does.
Regards.

What's rock and roll without a yee-haw or war-whoop before a solo?
This ragged piece of something or other came from a riff I had laying around for a couple of years. I pieced it together kind of last minute for RPM 2006. It's not bad, a lot…
This one is a personal favorite of mine, though it got savaged on Garageband.com. Ah well...
It has a lot of parts, lots of gtrs, and boatloads of harmonies. Actually, one guy on Garageband loved it. Maybe some day I will buy him a drink.
Listen…
Digging this one a lot too. Only you can know what you like to play, but I think your niche may be the psychedelic tinged material, your voice suits it very well and reminds me of post-punk and new wave like Wire, Stranglers, XTC etc. Good work.
P.S. most of the people at Garageband are tone deaf.
Turn this one up REALLY FREAKING LOUD!
Written, recorded and polished off in about 45 minutes or so. Clearly my British influence shines forth in this one, right down to the SG through a Vox amp tones and backward riffs here and there. (and…

Just stopped by for a fix of good rock and roll. I must say, based on your description, that perhaps you should let things get away from you more often. ;-/

Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…

There are two main reasons you still hear 70's music on the radio. 1) the copyright has run out and the station doesn't have to pay royalties any more, and 2) the music is better than everything else out there. Your music falls into the second category.

Taken from the album 'Reverse The Sun', recorded in February 2013 for the RPM Challenge.
Written and performed by Rog Hildreth.
A long one, something of a centrepiece for the record. Open tuning and ebow fun.

Fancied trying some fast piano. This one sounds like the single to me.
This is the first piece that I recorded - just after midnite on Feb. 1st. with Anne Cozean in mind as vocalist. Anne and I have worked together before and she delivered a great performance across two tracks. I was thinking Portishead going in…

billy boy where did you go

None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?

Hey, Gary. Just stopped by for a listen. Had a depressing day, and I needed a little good rock-n-roll to cheer me up. Thanks! ER
Again, excellent.

Great liquid groove; great change-ups and harmonies. Smooth...and amazing harmonies...
This is awesome. I love the chorus, especially the backing vox. Brilliant S-dude!
Great song, love the harmonies.
I was about to say this was nice and delicate, and then I glanced at the title again. Great minds I suppose? Wonderful playing.

Great melody! I like the backing synth tracks as well coupled with the crunching gtr.
Great instrumentation and use of space on this song. The vox is great.
Awesome.

Better than the original. I speak with authority here. ;)
