for the 2009 RPM Challenge album "Sabbatical"
Standing at the edge of Canyon de Chelly in Arizona at sunrise last summer I had an out of body experience.
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…
HAPPY
Everybody asks me why I'm so happy
They will get the message when they see your face...

Buddy Holly's music has been very central to my life.
Sometimes I try to write a Buddy Holly song.
this is the first track of my 1st solo album "flying solo" don't want to swamp the place with all mystuff so will upload them gradually
written on september the 3rd 2010 this is what i said about the song at the time.....
was saddened to hear…
People are dying every day in the street
People are dying every day
People are dying every day in the street
Just for being people in the street
Peace, when's it coming, coming for the people in the street
Peace, you can sing it
Sing it for the…
This is about the free spirit soaring high above the seas, forests, cities and times.
~There is no dark side in the moon, really. As a matter of fact it's all dark~
very impressionistic, Igor! I caught a snippet of Breathe I think, but love this nonetheless. Added to my "PF surrogate band" playlist. Thanks

Also nearly unchanged from the demo version, although it still needs a bit of revision. Kept the title this time.

1 bass
1 Indian toy/souvenir bowed instrument of unknown name
Sorry for killing the comments when I deleted…
in memory of ben keith
man of steel
heard your sound
as i roamed
in early days
of wonder
time was right
cast that spell
ever since
i've been under
bendin' notes
waves of air
all colors
of emotion
dark and light
deeply stirred…
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?

Yeah, I get the title joke. This is a wonderful album. Hope your doing well over there.
Great song, great tribute. BK was a big influence on my playing.
Love this, definitely has that sixties krautrock feel to it.
Great wordless melody folk-jazz thing going on here JMT. David Crosby could do no better.
Cool album, well done! Added this to my RPM11 faves playlist. Carry on.
thanks for all the great comments Cave!
Pretty cool stuff. Sadly I've overlooked your music for too long. Sorry.
added a video.
thanks! Yes I have that Luther Wright!
aint it good too be alive and playin guitar!
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.
