song#2 for RPMC2016
Expiration date
A rough month for rock stars
All the good ones are leaving
It's about that time
Just the songs remain and
Public grieving
I read the news today oh no
When you died they wrote you up
Counted your…
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…
Listening to your recent uploads as I drive from Oakland to Richmond- it's a time I don't have people trying to reach me so I can really hear the music and the lyrics both. This song is fun to listen to and I like the concept. Nice chorus which makes me want to sing along.
I think someone's got a bit of crush on someone innit.
What an album! Great writing, solid performance - fab feel. Can't wait for my copy and a wonderful drive during the summer. B) Fave tracks: Over the falls and Inosculation.
A special someone mentioned Truly,Madly,Deeply which I guess is a pop song. RPM Challenge 2016
True as stars shine in the sky
So certainly that I need not ask why
As honest as a heart that's found its key
And unlocked secrets I never could…

@Andrew Russe: very perceptive. Yeah I had to listen twice to appreciate the thoughtful layering of guitars, which I actually didn’t use in my remix because the mix would’ve been too crowded. This has been an almost constant earworm this week but I don’t mind!
Like beavers and willows
Bats and mosquitos
Toad frogs and flies
Like algae and oil spills
Miners and coal hills
Black holes and light

And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.
On…
Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
YOU GOTTA BE CAREFUL WITH LOVE
You gotta be careful with Love (2)
There'll be days when the sun will shine
The Breeze of Love flow thru your mind
But keep a coat out on the line
'cause you gotta be careful with Love
You gotta be…
Well EVERY album needs a love song!
CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF YOU
Doctor says my numbers aren't where they're suppose to be
Gotta change my eating habits and work out more than once a week
I know I tend to get addicted to things that make me…
Sometimes we don't resist the brightest flame until it's too late.
ACETYLENE
Baby, you burn - I never learn until I'm on fire
A dangerous game - the hottest flame I've ever seen
I can't look away from your blinding display, drawn by desire…
A piece conceived a few nights ago after discovering a bit more about minimalist composer Harold Budd. I was looking through this vast discography and was intrigued by an album of his called Avalon Sutra and particularly a long piece 'As Long…

Some people have someone to call their one and only

Or get a goat that eats their grass

Just beautiful!
Great playing
Nice and swingy.
always nice to hear your work
Great mix. Vocal is pristine. Nice use of metaphor.
Nice harmony and discant like voices on this one as well as great set of words.
Love the sound of your guitar on this plus the line 'stand around here waiting to die...' fabulous!
Love it great sound
An excellent RPM

<3 Ooooooh. *composes self* Ooooooh!
Absolutely great song-writing. I won't say who this reminds me of (because everyone hates that, Neil Young, cough) but it sounds like a classic.
...and this one. :) Cheeky and potent. Perfect.
Faved right off the bat - I've heard this one several times on the RPM site. An absolute delight.
Sigh...just great playing. Total class. MOODY but total class. You're the guy I want on my porch swing juz playing away all day long.
What an opener... Love the bitter sweet melody and the space here. Those light touches are superb.
@fallingupart you are correct sir, 808 drum machine in Logic, played live because I was too lazy to sequence a track!
What's supplying the percussion? It sounds as if it's an old analog drum machine, but played live?

Too much is..too much. More! More!
Pretty cool stuff. A deep well.
You’re a master at layering those vocals man
"remastered"
Cool song, great slide work!
Lovely!
This is my new theme song.
You went over and above! Nice!
Great songwriting! Really digging the album!
Good job!
Nice, Jim! Maybe I’ll woop my lap steel out for rpm.
That’s different. Nice.
Wonderful, well played
Thanks fudgetusk. Uploaded new version to correct some production errors.
Nice mashing!
Great new batch of songs, JMT. Sounds like you’ve turned a corner. All the exquisite choral harmonies are still there.
I just like saying it.
Sweet gtr tones main
Badass!
