#4 for the RPM Challenge.
Have you heard this melody before? This is one of those where I wonder if I've unconsciously "borrowed" something from someone. Translation: the Fly Boat, like the tourist boats that ply the river Seine and their bright…

Oh, so good. I always come away from your acoustic tracks feeling equal parts inspired and inadequate as a musician! I need to start studying your fingerings on these... It's about time I started learning how to really play this damn instrument.

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.
you are like the rain that falls with the snow
or is it the other way around
i dont know
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…
Very, very raw demo for our 09 RPM disc. Drums are a click track & unmixed; needs one more guitar track, eq, channel compression, an honest-to-god mix, etc...
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
There's a lot going on here! Definitely worth a few listens...
Very Yes-like groove.The ending caught me by surprise.
Damn- You're on a roll with these RPM tracks. This is freakin' great stuff!
erm.....a bit good!!!
Whew! That was fine, fine, fine.
Man, LOVING the acoustic stuff, Kavin! Soooooo good.
I thought we were heading into Cash town at the start.....then we went somewhere new........thanks for the walkabout......Super playing...like a dream in sound...
Incredible! I love the acoustic. A pro finger-picker! Hats off to ya.
I agree with Keith: inspired/humbled! As always, thank you for so freely sharing your beautiful music, kavin..
Hi, Kavin enjoyed the walk very much!
Perfect! A perfect image for a moonlight walk
Thanks MTC! I'm relieved!
according to Shazam...."Sorry a match could not be found for your music"..it must be yours ;)

Nice! Like that change around 1:20. Interesting lead tone you got on this one too.
...and their bright spotlights attract me at night. Here I go...
Damn! How did I miss this. Great stuff man
Your fingerwork is pretty damn great!
I am so A-440. I see alternate tuning in my future. This is some sweet playing.
I like that Drop D, fragmented chord sound. The harmonics were a nice touch too.
Comments made by kavin.
Excellent! Like the additions you made since the first demo. Great album dude!
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.
