Hey Gary - I listened to your album on the RPM jukebox, and this is my favorite so far. I'll probably change my mind later, but I like the harmonies you did, and I find myself singing the chorous at random times. Well done, sir. I liked all the songs and I'll be loading them into my MP player once I finish downloading.
Regards.

Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…
Figure Out- There are about 4-5 takes of this song, all different. The song started off in the key of D, but I couldn’t hit the notes in the chorus. I then tried it in A, but it was lacking drive and energy. I tried it in G, but I couldn’t get…

Keep Shining Through- Last minute lyrics…kind of a cop-out, since it’s a song about song-writing. I didn’t have any better ideas and after losing so much time from the outage I had to just bust out what I could. It was pretty much written on the…
Amazing foxy RPM album! How can so much fun be free?
2010 is an awesome year. Can feel summer early. Also loving the retro vibe - maybe it's just me, but there's a great 60s feelgood vibe in here.

"I didn’t intend this song to be about getting naked and f*ing in the grass somewhere. If that’s what someone wants it to be, fine with me, enjoy yourself or, preferably, you and your partner enjoy yourselves with this song as the soundtrack."

Derivative- This one was not supposed to be on the album, but I changed my mind and worked on it. The reason for the intended omission was because the riff, which I have been playing with for a few months, just sounded so derivative of Dear Prudence…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…

Love’s Standing- A good change up for the flow of the album, this one is vaguely, very vaguely, country-esque. That’s mainly because of the heavily reverbed slide underneath the acoustic in the verses. I love pounding the strings on the acoustic…

They say you got me hooked
They say you drive…
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Matt, this album is really something special. Your singing is great, the performances are top notch, and I love the production. Be proud of this, be really proud. Great ****ing record, my good sir.
An afternoon on the Saco with Karen always leads to delusions of grandeur. Now where did I leave that eye patch?

Excellent! Loving the new tracks man! They're helping me through the tedium of the shop today!
Good riff!! Handclaps are a nice touch too!
Very cool textures with all those guitar parts!
Nice one man!

Wow...this is incredibly inventive! Bet it was tricky getting it right, but you completely nailed it!
Gorgeous - sublime song-writing. Maybe would work as a duet also? Excellent...
What a summer anthem! And GREAT driving music!
I love those melodic flourishes you just casually throw in to your music. Very clever and a complete delight to hear.
The whole production and performance on this track (and probably all of them!) is fantastic, but I love the chorus especially. Vocals are top notch!
Classy old skool feel-good rock! Rock how it's meant to be.
Guitartastic :)
I'm picking up serious Boston vibes from this.. Maybe throw in a little Rolling Stones for good measure.
Ya'll nailed this tune.

Another cool groove from KC's Groove. Love the guitar in this!
Fantastic spread and air in this mix. Loving the groove on the gtr coming out of the far right speaker. Nice!
Instant hit. Love the intro!
I love the guitars on this. Great tone!
Still love this tune...
This is a really cool number, Brett!
Cool, different textures on this one, very smooth and subversive. Nice work!
Nice riff, cool tune!
Dude...I love this, and not just because of the subject matter...
Matt, this album is really something special. Your singing is great, the performances are top notch, and I love the production. Be proud of this, be really proud. Great ****ing record, my good sir.
This intro is fantastic.
Cool number. For some reason it sounds like it could have been part of School House Rock back in the day...
The production quality on your record this year is over the top, Matt. Really stellar job.
Cool departure from the rest of the record. Bass is awesome.
Love the syncopation. Matt, this record is kick-arse.
This. Is. F***ing. Awesome.
Brilliant.
Damn, Matt. You have nailed a great vibe and sound here.
Dude, this sounds fantastic!
Wow...great, great record, Keith. Every number was so very good; you captured a mood here. Congrats!
