Sometimes the past in which you felt successful and strong, reminds of fragility of life. It's a sign of that you are in a point of transition and you should make a choice. Or the choice will be made for you. For me.

Initial harmony, that infinitely moving in space, becomes thiner and thiner and finally turns to chaos. We, humans, are able to distinguish harmony in seeming casual sounds. We're able re-create it.

"Bewildered, they searched for reality" - it's in the beginning. Further, everything (in my plan) should gradually come to harmony, harmony, harmony... until it begins to fall apart again :-) I do not know if I can compose and play it well - we'll see.

Lockdown:
We don't get to choose our days or chase our past
We only get the ones, we've made to cast
but there are things I'd say if I could
and If I was a better man
but under lockdown all I have...
Sweet end…
Ok, I have decided to put it here. It is a stretch containing several ideas, it falls apart here and there (especially at 3:10), but I think the atmosphere shines through.
Hope I can return to it in a couple of weeks (when my head is clear…

I don't normally repeat myself too, but when I sat down to listen this melody first thing that came to me was peaceful elegy. Thank you Doug. I' m dreaming about to collaborate with you somehow.
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…

Last track for RPM 2010, and by far my favorite of the batch…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.

Another Pot of Gold....
Beautiful mate very nice.
this melody scratches at my heart with a long fingernail
Beautiful, brooding piece.
Really quite lovely in a strange sort of way
"Bewildered, they searched for reality" - it's in the beginning. Further, everything (in my plan) should gradually come to harmony, harmony, harmony... until it begins to fall apart again :-) I do not know if I can compose and play it well - we'll see.
Like walking around in a daze, bewildered and searching for reality.
This is stunningly beautiful.
Outstanding Performance.
Ah, you remembered and a whole extra minute! Gorgeous indeed, thank you. They had tu tu's for Molly's birthday.
Lovely, glad you're back!
Very Beautiful!
I hope you made a choice and it was the right one for you. Lovely piece, beautifully played. Peace Bethan
The day was sunny and warm, however. Although the song itself came out cool, it's true :-)
reminds me of a cloudy cold day in Berlin
Very cool.

Clavinova is a cool instrument w/top sound and keyb quality. I have one :-)
Here I'm agreed with Bethan.
That's good. Like it. How...now do-o-w... Here to stay.

Bit more keyboards :-) and "Boston" will reborn here. I like it. You're American Rocker, yeahh...
I'm a whisky drinker, too.
