This Lovin’ Cup- I was watching the idiot box and just holding my guitar when this little vamp on a B chord came out of nowhere. Using the same recorder, I recorded about 20 seconds of the riff. The lyrical idea came on the trip to Chicago, while…
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…
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…

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…

Had the chorus idea floating in my head for a number of years, but never had the inspiration to do anything with it. Then a friend died and this song came out of me staring out the window in the cold of January 2005 wondering what the hell to…

Nothing like the sound of a strat through that classic "brown" sound. Gritty, driving, crunchy, lovely tones...This is my welcome back, did you miss me, RPM 2008 opening track.
So, I start playing my Guild acoustic. However, the strings were new and had gone all slackish, meaning down a few tones. I liked what it sounded like and took them all off. I then restrung the gtr with super heavy guage acoustic strings. I then…
This is a track of serendipity (is that how you spell that?) I was hours from deadline, lots of mixing left to do, and this track was FAR from done. I love the congas in this one. In general, this is a fun one for me. For once I actually don't…
Ok, so on this one I wear my influences on my sleeve. This is one that quickly went in one direction so I decided to ride it to the maximum. I still like the words to this one. I'm no Costello (Elvis) but I did ok here.
Eerie, mournful, beautiful, but so, so lonely.
These are the words of a friend listening to it. When you make a conscious choice as to who you should be, what you were meant to be, what you have failed to be, until now...
This one is meant…
Well, this is why I don't play drums. It's the best Moon I could pull off. I keep hammering the gtr riff over and over, but it's because it was so much fun to play. Its structure is a little too meandering in hindsight, but oh well. For whatever…
We decided to give the kids an outlet that wasn’t pandemic or lockdown based this February, and made an album as a family for the RPM Challenge 2021. It was just the most precious, funny, brilliant month.

This song was written for Tony Sly of No Use For A Name - He passed away July of 2013.
His music helped me through quite a bit as a kid and influenced me as a musician. I never thought I would miss a person I had never met but here I am.
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Here's the very latest from the broom-cupboard.
I wrote it one dark night over 23 years ago.

**All I Have To Do - A A J Russe**
There isn’t much time to get this out
You won’t hear me if I have to…
Ok, grabbed me right away with that unexpected chord shift in the intro. I love your songwriting, man. The variety, the sonic palettes, the lyrics, the playing, the inventiveness, all of it really; it's such a pleasure to sit, listen, and lose myself in the song.

Comments made by Gary Fox
Wait, wah-wah bass?!? Awesome. This tune just keeps getting better with each passing sound, twist, and part.
So beautiful...
I think I have my new most favorite song ever. This is genius. The delivery is perfect.
I love the feel, the movement, the spice. Bloody great!
Magical. Purely magical.
That riff is tasty; very, very tasty! And I love the vox delivery...great song!
I love every aspect of this song; the mix, the performance, the writing, all of it.
Wow, great song. Great song!
Out of the gate...this one grabs you instantly. It's a great counterpoint to Part 1.
This is an anthem! Great song!
I love how this song almost pulses out of the speakers at me. Great cut!
This whole album is phenomenal. You're the Monet of auditory soundscapes! I loved every track.
Love the guitars!
Nice! This rocks!
This is such a great song, Tim.
I love this.
Such a great number, wilsun!
I really like the melancholy feel of the beginning. The space is nice, and the synth at 2:30 is perfect.
This song and performance are 2 minutes and 28 seconds of perfection.
