I've listened to your entire album, and I enjoyed it a great deal. Made me envious that I can't pluck the strings like you can, but that's my cross to bear. Well done.

Beautiful, Kavin. I ;ove the way things meld here. Leads the mind off and away. And yes, I guess that would be voices from Dreamtime. Although I did mix cultures (Australian/ Native American). But that would be me all over!
Recorded in 2005.

Mixed by Joe Griffin of Toxic Bag Productions.
The guitar solo is not actually a guitar.

Good version. I've heard so many covers of this, my favorite one is by New Riders of the Purple Sage. An old country classic originally done by Lefty Frizell but written by someone else.

Thanks for all of the tasty tunes Johnny.
5/4 120bpm.
Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…
Keith Landry used his considerable vocal talents on this song, and he made a decent song sound great. I added one or two harmonies, but the lead vocals are his. I think he did a great job. What do you think?

Wow! You did this album too? Proves your at least as crazy as I am! Very well done, not just synth pads and gobs of reverb, well thought out and arranged ambient compositions!
Finally going to end this RPM with a slop fest.
Pretty disgusted with my efforts. I did have some fun though.
I feel like I just gave birth to a full set of Ludwigs.
High gloss black of course.

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

Acoustic tale recorded Christmas 2010.
I wrote it years ago. Even tried rehearsing it with the band I was in at the time. But I couldn't play it properly. It took several weeks of practicing DADGAD (never really used it in anger before) until…
Title song from this years RPM Challenge.
Lyrics:
Shot dead
is what I felt when I first looked into your eyes
Shot dead
Is what I became, I tell you that ain't no lie
My head
it just exploded when I saw that way that you dance
Off…

I really enjoyed this. It all worked very nicely together.
Splendid and uniquely creative. Nice blend of sounds.
Yes - I love it.

A breath of fresh air :) w;-)
The sun's finally shining this morning, and this song is the perfect compliment to start of the day. Well done.
Lucky birds. This is peaceful and sweet. Feel like I'm sitting on your porch in one of those lovely swing chair things. Drinking lemon tea.
Nice one mate very cool.
Love the way you hold the space in this it's time well spent - thank you!
I like the subtle nature samples too, nice touch
Thats a beaut of a song.
beautiful (I'm trying not to scare off the birds)
Sweet!
Beautiful playing and something reminiscent of Glu about the birdsong & engine noise which works really well here. Kudos!
Beautiful, Kavin. I ;ove the way things meld here. Leads the mind off and away. And yes, I guess that would be voices from Dreamtime. Although I did mix cultures (Australian/ Native American). But that would be me all over!
Fantastic playing. I like this a lot!
Great job covering this one!
Wow. Just wow. This just draws me in and mesmerizes me.
Oh yeah! Great bit of moodiness and I really dig the instrumental breaks.
@kirklynch CGDGBD I think....could be wrong but that's close. Need to revisit it and learn it!

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.

Wonderful album, Raven. I love this dark ambient stuff. Thanks!
Great beats as always Norm. You can bet I'll be using this. Has anyone done a "Stone Age" playlist yet with all these tributes? hmmm
Great rockin album Gary! So far this is my fave.
Thanks so much for the comments ER! You guys did great here.
Love the TVZ, bless yer heart.
Wow! You did this album too? Proves your at least as crazy as I am! Very well done, not just synth pads and gobs of reverb, well thought out and arranged ambient compositions!
crunchy good!
very cool instrumental, this and shot dead my favorite so far.
thanks Sis. Daughter Brit did the vocal in the middle!
been smokin James Brown? Good luck with that drug/alcohol thing.
Trying to wrap my head (ears?) around the slightly overdriven mono(?) mix you use, but the melodies are always so strong!
A new version with a REAL female vocal.
Wonderful album, you deserve some kind of medal, considering the circumstances.
Great song and acoustic gtr sound! Your voice is so expressive too.
Oops commenting previously and forgot to sign in, enjoying the album.
Chilling. If looks could kill...
