A friend of mine once called this kind of jam session "noodling", as in "straight from your noodle (pointing to his head) to the guitar". This is a primo "noodling" session.

The theme for Improv Friday this week is "variations". So here's an improv reconstruction of the one classical piece I know, Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.

Ditty #9 for the RPMC album "Bones".
I'd had this rolling around in my head for about a year now, and even played it live with the SD&Q trio. Didn't quite turn out as planned, which is not unusual.

really not much synth, all experiments with effects over guitars and then stretched or feedback recording problems that turned into dial tone like drone sounds. Awesome either way you brought it, dude!

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…

Shout out to Tom Waits, one of my favs. Rumor has it, he has had a similar problem with his piano.
I didnt think I would make it signing this way to the end of the song, lol.
Throat lozenge anyone??
This is a track I've been working on for quite a while so I am glad to finally have it out of my head.
I have a kind of love/hate relationship with time and its humble functionary, the clock. Ticking, in particular, is something I am ambivalent…
I just made this.
Some reasons I haven't uploaded anything here in a year and a half:
- A lot of the projects I've spent the most time on are very complex, so they quickly burn me out as I'm trying to keep a clear picture of the whole thing…
Well it's been awhile for me. Busy summer and a bit of creative block all around. I'm happy to share a song I wrote this weekend to reflect on how tough change can be when you're in the midst of it. So many in my life are in the midst of personal…
i gave amplitube 3 a free test run. Had to get ampli vst's into audicity then mix and record / master yada. Still playing around , this stuff is tickie for an ole fart like myself to learn.

Great songwriting! Really digging the album!
Good job!
Nice, Jim! Maybe I’ll woop my lap steel out for rpm.

Wonderful, well played
Thanks fudgetusk. Uploaded new version to correct some production errors.

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.

Excellent playlist!
Glad you're back! More please!
Thanks. This is beautiful, welcome back. I've been thinking about that difference a lot lately.
thanks, Cap, the amp on Remnento is Logic's "boutique retro amp"
..and he was right about the Esus2 chord from the train whistle. Amazing.
Neat!
