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.
El sol azul está por encima, aquí, en el espacio que se llama eterna. El sol azul está por debajo.

The blue sun is above, here,
In the space
That is called timeless.
The blue sun is below

My RPM challenge this year: acoustic guitar instrumental album with no more than three tracks on each tune (ok, maybe four!)
This one is a single track with no overdubs. On the 12 string, the 4th,5th and 6th string pairs are tuned a fourth apart.

Hi Kavin, if your new tuning changed the length between the 5th and 6ths fret for instance then, no you could not accomplish this by changing the tuning of the open strings.
On the other hand you can make a small trip into microtonality by retuning the open strings a quarter flat or sharp relative to each other.

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.

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.
5 tracks guitar
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?

Very nice.
Awesome.
Very cool tones !! Nice!! Almost middle eastern
Move over Leo , Kavins on to something here. A fountain of sweet new sounds to these ears
Gorgeous sounds man! Love the sound of that tuning. You get some wonderful chord voicings that way
nice playing, the 12 string gives the fingers a work out.
lush and soothing.
hi Kavin, Wondering Aloud is on my list!
Kavin, this is special. The sounds are familiar yet strange. Thats sooo cool ! thanks , my ears are refreashed, Steve
I'm a fan.

Back again
Instant fave! Love! w;-)
Oh my, that's artistic!
@Wildgeas: YAY!
Downloaded - because I wish to cut it in to little loop-able pieces, toss it in to the air and see what happens.

Overlooked this great album, until now. Is it possible for you to post Nylon too?
Yeahh!! I detect a pattern here..
glad to be of service mmi!
you are a gentleman.
Excellent Rick! I love this stuff! Great jam yawl.
Glad you found alonetone buddy! Your sounding good!

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.
