Made it through another year
Still don’t know why I’m here
Make some music drink some beer
Sounds alright to me
Loved ones leave
Friends come then go
Everything can change so quick
Don’t let the bullshit bring you down
Just enjoy this…
RPMers I salute you
Ice ice everywhere like a skating rink
I don’t wanna go nowhere
I don’t wanna think
I’ll just stay inside press record and sing
RPM is here
it’s 2am what else to do
Make up rhymes strum a chord
Find a good groove…

RPM day 2
Now I ain’t no groundhog baby
I can barely see my shoes
If I see a shadow it’s cos I’ve got the blues
If you want a weather forecast
I suggest that you watch the news
But I tell you something I can predict
There will be 6 more…

Song 3 for the RPM Challenge
Fly away
Leave it now
You’re time has come
Earn that beautiful reward
Time is cruel
It is never kind
We can only hope to find
Some love and joy
For awhile when we’re here
Years marched by
Through…

you are like the rain that falls with the snow
or is it the other way around

all i know is i love you
and cant get above you
it is driving with no place to go
the muscle and the bone i find
that keeps my heart in line

Well I been playing the blues for so long
Kinda feel like playing jazz x 2
I dig the random instrumentation.
Play this in eight over three and a half
I been playing the blues for so long, make me feel like tryna rap x 2
I think I'll call…
Growing up is hard.
For everyone.
I once had a Facebook Friend named Shannon Elizabeth Hardwick. A poet, from Midland, Texas, doing advanced studies at Sarah Lawrence. She was so good she could write a hundred pages about how she couldn…
Features Gary Essex on slide guitar and is but an instrumental of the full song that is Blues Blues - please check it out and love it as though it were your own...
Please note that this particular version is dedicated to the wonderfully talented…

Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Kavin, I'm very happy for you, the mother and father, and all the rest of the family! :) BW
This is just lovely.
Now, this had me at the opening notes.
Yup. Let the groove begin.
OMG - this is bliss through headphones.
Well done rock n roller :) BW
A nice kind of baroque style little ditty with a clever title. :) BW
A nice heartfelt ballad. But I do hope there will be many more good days in the future. :) BW
Surely it can’t be the last lovely song
At least
Groovy
That's very good gem of a song ...
This sure tells it like it is! Great lyrics. A real keeper!!
Very intense and meditative at the same time. Great!
that is great....yup depressing, true, ....but you made music!
Hey that is awesome (and hilarious too)! Great groove and love the lyrics!! (Fellow RPMer)
This is a very touching song. Well done! :) BW
right from the start it's a catchy groove.
too cool Kavin.
I think I've been here before. :) Love it man.

Yes. This is the favorite. Great album man!
the river is now in my best of RPM09 itunes playlist! Incredible.
This is crazy good. I want to describe it as "angular melody". Does that make sense?
This, and Setting Sun, are favorites from yer album. Neat effect on that guitar.
Really like these solo guitar/voice tunes. It's hard to make that style compelling, but with your songwriting, you pulled it off!
Great songs. Great harmonies. Kind of Beach Boys meets Roger Waters.
I think this is my fave from your album. But then I'm a sucker for a good blues tune.
This one, and Feelings, are my favorites, good job Rick.
That's really great. Love the chord choices, harmonica, vocal, well..everything!
These lovely guitar soundscapes just keep coming. Great RPM album!
To key88: No overdubs. Thanks!
I'm diggin' these instrumentals!
Good work, JMT. Thank you.
I really like this instrumental version alot!
That's trippy cool.
Good to see you here! THanks for sharing the album. After the RPM dust settles I may have to spring for the hard copy.
Excellent. Glad you got yer platform up!
I'm really diggin these fingerstyle pieces.
Lovely vocal treatment. Just a tad long.
Yeah, that bum note was buggin me too.. ; -)
