A fingerpicky tune from the old days.
The different guitar voices (nylon string classical and Guild 12-string) were attained using a Line 6 Variax 600 modeling guitar. Great for recording, but I returned it because of some minor issues.

HEy Kavin. Thanks for the kind words. We're intentionally trying to do something without any borders and without too much convention. Kind of like trying to make a painting and not use canvas and brushes....thinking outside the box on this project. We thought the only way anyone would listen if is we had good song names...since they are really not so much songs as they are, moments of space isolated. If that makes sense. But thanks for hopping on board. more to come. Love your sound as well. IS the Mr. Faraday reference have to do with the character on LOST?
Sunday aftnoon (11/09/08) took the reso down to the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum and recorded some doodling inside the Serra sculpture Vortex. No effects added, all natural reverb inside the structure.
LOVE this! A very cool tune. I love that the chorus is so pretty, so much truth delivered but none more evident than that catchy sing-songy bit where you're really talking about the joy of casual sex...lol! I F-ing love that!

Sloane did me a favor & played an electric guitar part on this one. I had hoped to work with her more on this project, but she wound up leaving town to help take care for a recovering family member.

You asked me where these rumors start.
"I don't know," I said and crossed my heart.
But I told you I did not hope to die.
You said you can't trust no more.
Why start now? You never did before.
Now I just have to pause and wonder…
This is an experiment in stacking real time delay/looped tracks that had no preconceived connections... all overdubs were done without listening to previously recorded tracks. I hear some very interesting synchronizations.... You?

Good version. I've heard so many covers of this, my favorite one is by New Riders of the Purple Sage. An old country classic originally done by Lefty Frizell but written by someone else.
Here's to Johnny!
Gifted composer. Talented musician. Supportive friend.

2008-2011: the Stone Age!
Thanks for all of the tasty tunes Johnny.
5/4 120bpm.
Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…
Keith Landry used his considerable vocal talents on this song, and he made a decent song sound great. I added one or two harmonies, but the lead vocals are his. I think he did a great job. What do you think?
ER
Wow! You did this album too? Proves your at least as crazy as I am! Very well done, not just synth pads and gobs of reverb, well thought out and arranged ambient compositions!
Finally going to end this RPM with a slop fest.
Pretty disgusted with my efforts. I did have some fun though.
I feel like I just gave birth to a full set of Ludwigs.
High gloss black of course.
For 2011 RPM Challenge album John the Resonator
A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.

I like the guitar part on this tune, the keyboards remind me (pleasantly) of good eighties music (there was some.)

Wow. It all works. It started smiling after about 10 seconds and still haven't stopped.
COOL my bro. That´s what I´m talking about... GOOD MUSIC!!!
I really love this blues sound, and very well played.
Already cool. The natural sound makes it even cooler.

Pretty cool stuff. Sadly I've overlooked your music for too long. Sorry.

This is a seriously good album, raw in places, but all fascinating and experimental. It deserves more listens.
I like this "impressionist" take on this, one of may favorite all time songs.

Wonderful album, Raven. I love this dark ambient stuff. Thanks!
Great beats as always Norm. You can bet I'll be using this. Has anyone done a "Stone Age" playlist yet with all these tributes? hmmm
