#4 for the RPM Challenge.
Have you heard this melody before? This is one of those where I wonder if I've unconsciously "borrowed" something from someone. Translation: the Fly Boat, like the tourist boats that ply the river Seine and their bright…
Track 9 for RPMX album Cold Ground Was My Bed
Those boots that you're wearing black and high
Reach almost up to your thigh
High heels and leather
Tight as a drum
They would even look good on your mum
Black Boots
Wear them with fishnets…

track 8 for my RPMX album Cold Ground Was My Bed
Little Jack Kerouac sits under a tree
Tells me that all we see is just a movie
In our minds
If you look at those mountains for months at a time
You will see the blissful essence of your…
Track 5 from my RPMX album Cold Ground Was My Bed
Inspired by Salvador Dali. Mostly.
Gravity failing
Cats float flailing
Furniture in midair
Salvador smiling
Rainbows crying
Clocks melting everywhere
Pachyderms stilted
Lovers…
RPMX track 4
Skin of silk, tungsten steel
Machine of lust, seems unreal
Simple chores are what you’re for
I remade you for so much more
My love is gone forever now
But you will do, 'cos I know how
To modify you’re software now

Track 2 for the RPM 2015 album Cold Ground Was My Bed
"Yesterday was a den of sorrow, today is a bright mystery, the future a dim dream or ancient history"
I couldn't resist crossing swords with Alex on this deft song of his which left me quite touchéd!
*Inspired in part at least by accidental meat on meat.*
Here's the original track.
Lyrics:
I’ll stand above this cliff
And offer up my soul
Would there be an end to pain
To jump in to this hole
Could this be goodbye
If there’s a light below me
Will it set me free
Could I fly today
Is this my only option

At a recent charity event held in my small town's train museum, I was admiring a massive brass train bell when the curator walked up to me. I commented that a bell would really rather be heard then seen, and he agreed. I offered to digitally record…
Time for a little humor. I had my wisdom teeth pulled last year, and the pain was debilitating. When I got the right pain meds, I felt so much better that I wrote this song. Colin added his considerable vocal talents and his harmonica and brought…
Furry car tires, I played a Epiphone then, Ice cream grew on trees, then everyone became fanatical about Hummus, I like Hummus but I lost the argument.
Improvisation is what I love, finding out about things (when there is a little time).
I also post the video where I have used it in. Hedgehogs were here last year in our garden, and now they start coming back from hibernation. Uk, the hedgehog…
Recorded in 2007, this track features Amanda Monaco on Guitar and Anthony Cekay on Saxophone. This is our take on Joe Zawinul's famous tune "In A Silent Way."
1776...a stalemate over Bostontown, Colonel Knox reminds General Washington of some cannon left at Fort Ticonderoga in upstate New York and asks if he and some hearties could go fetch them so they could have half a chance against the British…
Her real name isn't Luanne and she was so drunk when this all happened (tho she has a cd with this song on it) she has no idea it's about her.
Singing this song always makes me cry...

This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

I really dig this.
invigorated enough to clean house. I like how it moves forward.
Interesting technique on the guitar. Very creative!
Amazing album, Kavin. Love that you returned to song-writing - always loved your voice.
Great playing... You have such wonderful sounds at your fingertips. Truly a gifted musician. Wonderful stuff, Kavin with a dot.
Full of charm!
King of Cool! DUDE!
Foot tapping cleverness. Ooh! "We've all been there baby." <3
Beneath your skin... So tender I hardly no where to look!
Oh beautiful melody sounds like it just poured out of you. Fabulous...tender...
This swings. Great groove! You need to get really irritated more often, my friend. (Prev. cmment not withstanding.)
Don't be pissed off, Kavin. Have a big old Cornish hug. xx
Agree with Gene - vox sound great.
Comments made by kavin.
My favorite BC song (there are many) and you did it justice.
...I'd take my rod to the sea. (sorry) Great song!
That bass line has an acoustic sound to it, then processed? Cool.
Nice groove there. Shades of Santana without the guitar of course.
I'll keep saying it! Great great song!
What a warm tone, nice job.
Rockin colab yawl. Pass the percodan.
I've given up favoriting all your tracks, I'll just bookmark your page. Amusing comments too.
Are you playing guitar or are these samples? It's ok either way if you dont want to reveal..
Welcome to the party! You've posted some incredibly good stuff!
Wonderful cover of the great ENO. Only 9 listens?

Oh yes one of my PF faves. Added to my alonetone PF playlist.

Lovely, plaintive, good ending.
Love the historical theme. Makes for great folk music.
