You can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned. But I live in hope that you will. :) I couldn't find the clutch either. In fact, I shouldn't be legal on the road. How the hell do you sing like a chicken?? Are you some kind of hybrid? Dude!

brother Shawn, here's a disk for your collection
we're gonna go check out this here…
This is the first rough, acoustic take of the song 'Iris Florentine' from the album Orchids for Betty.
It's super acoustic and just three mono tracks mixed to a stereo file, so don't expect too much by way of production values.
Lyrics follow…
A funky tune about my step-dad. This is an out-take from my RPM09 effort. I used the rock version for the cd, though in retrospect I think this version is better! Oh, well...
I was thinking about a guy that I met one time in the street in Montreal who was just kind of aimlessly wandering about Canada following the death of his son...
Manitoba:
I’m on my way, on my way,
On my way back to Dufresne…
I remember…
I have to find time to sit back and blast this album out. I've heard three tracks so far when I'm rushed and I keep wanting to play the whole thing LOUD.
Another great track, David.
2009 Record Production Month Challenge offering. Very pleased with the collective results. The title came from my friend Zane. His iced tea was in a damaged cup. Thus the title. There are various quotes in the song including some from Mishima…
The title just popped into my head unannounced one day and I had to try to work from that. About a girl with a broken radio and the repairman who would do anything to find her a new one and win her love...
It certainly appears broken, Minerva…
A song about the lost art of the mix-tape and knowing that someone is trouble but doing it anyway...

Did I mention that I think that you’re a real fine dancer and I like the way you dress?

your ear for traditional type gems and ability to nail them is incredible!
your rpm in 2010 was one of our favorites. this is great. cant wait to hear more.
very nice!!!,,i see your from Ireland,,yet this has a very appalachian touch/feel, of course many Irish/English went to those mts, any connection? very very nice
Better catch those chickens!
Love the backing vocals, Fav'd!
Stu does it again!! You da man!
You Sir, are most original. Very enjoyable.
Cracking chicken vocals! really enjoyed this! i should tune in to ur channel more often!
Gumbo, can we have dinner?
You can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned. But I live in hope that you will. :) I couldn't find the clutch either. In fact, I shouldn't be legal on the road. How the hell do you sing like a chicken?? Are you some kind of hybrid? Dude!
I guess this has come home to roost...hope you got your goat back and had dinner,great job... Jarvo

Comments made by Gumbo
How indeed. Wonderful sound and a great mix. And yes - straight off of The Big Pink. Stellar!
I must have heard this somewhere else, Rob. Faved.
Yep. That's cool alright.
I tried not to like this - I'm not keen on the vocal but dang, it's another great song!
Damn that's tight!
Stunning! Love it!
This one reminds me of Jonathan Richman, too. Great stuff.
Beautiful! and such a lovely chorus.
Great harmonies. I laughed a lot at this.
Love these lyrics, Rob. Fred sounds like a cool codger.
1977 !! Yeah this works for me, too. Gritty and a younger character, and breaking out rather than lost! Good one.
I have to find time to sit back and blast this album out. I've heard three tracks so far when I'm rushed and I keep wanting to play the whole thing LOUD. Another great track, David.
the other joint fave. Thanks Colin. I enjoyed listening today.
No! It's the one I wanted to play first! Though I'm glad I listened in order. joint fave.
I was hoping for more like this. Strong guitar rhythms and an easy flowing vocal. Faved.
definitely a stand out track - the voice is great for the philosophical imagery.
Love the guitar frippery - good track
Smashing!! You've got really strong melodies, so easy to settle into this. Damn. Two favourites in two listens! It's a shame I got to go to work!
Great voice! And I love the " old soul music on a third hand radio " Love it!
lovely pace. I like this a lot.
