For 2011 RPM Challenge album John the Resonator
A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.
Elvis was the mountain king
Who ruled the land of El-Karyaang
His wife Priscilla lady fair
Was taken…
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…

Mellow morning mist fall
Melting into day
This summer said son, you are lazy
Don’t follow any example, break every rule
After awhile you’ll find it’s so easy to do
Just stay within the limits of your love
Soon the air will turn colder…

This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

Buddy Holly's music has been very central to my life.
Sometimes I try to write a Buddy Holly song.

People are dying every day in the street
People are dying every day

Just for being people in the street
Peace, when's it coming, coming for the people in the street
Peace, you can sing it

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?

Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Aw, a fitting tribute! Great cover, K!
Hey would be proud, perfect.
According to the Men in Black, Elvis is not dead. He just went home. Brit did a nice job. ER
way cool - i dig it
Ohmygod! And you made a song about it! EEEEEEK. ER
This describes my writing process perfectly. ER
exceptional!
Your lyrics are very good in this. The imagery is excellent. In my mind I can see what you saw. Well done. ER
...Johnny is sitting up there on a cloud listening to this and smiling...great!
Everybody's got the Blues.... ooh yeh!!!! now i got the Blues....
Awesome stuff!
Yes, ethereal is a very good word for this one. Nice work!
Was just about to fave this again! Great big fat sounds! Brilliant RPM album, Kavin! Your best ever, IMHO.
Great playing - great vocal! Very tight!
Good to hear another incarnation of your wonderful music! Beautiful, Kavin!
thanks Sis. Daughter Brit did the vocal in the middle!
Sound like the collab worked out mighty well. ;) Nice arrangement
Killer, love it!
Yep a steel drum sample it is...i'm not really sure where i even got them, but i have a bunch. All i was trying to do was fix a drum kit is was building and BAM! ended up in loop land for a while.
Haha! Totally brilliant!!! Playing is fabulous, and the vox arrangement is too cool! Who is the female vocalist?

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.
