Finally, the finishing touches seem to be put on this three-year-old song thanks to some very talented people.
The band is:
Liam (age 13 at the time of recording) on drums
A Girl Named Sam (she's no kid!) with the backing vocals
Genevieve…

Just to clarify, the drummer is a thirteen year old kid, the person who helped with much of the arrangement is a fifteen year old kid, and the vocals are done by A Girl Named Sam (NOT a kid, but a wonderfully talented fellow RPM'er singer/songwriter here on alonetone.

Oh Man! That vocal is superb!
And The Female vox fits in perfect!
Great mix, and blend of intruments!
I agree! This one is Eternal!
A Superb Song!

What does a songwriter do when he's addicted to Doctor Who (and his new very cute companion)? He writes...
Amy Pond
Red hair and that pretty face beneath it

I've only been away for ten or…
Thanks again, professional?? AHAHAHA, naaa just having fun as usual. I took 2 music theory courses and then realized it was warping my brain, so i forgot it all and went back to playing what i love.

Exorcising an old demon. Eight or ten years ago, one of my ninth grade students came up with a permanent solution to a temporary problem on Halloween night. He was the last kid I had spoken to that day on my way out the door. Again, if you…
The first recorded version of this song, this little folk song was originally written fifteen or so years ago with just the four chord rhythm guitar and single vocal. The song became what it is today when I needed to write additional verses for…

Another song from the archive... Written about a friend who somehow seemed to come out of her general sad manner... Thoughts go back to a lunar eclipse when the girl I was standing next to to watch it (way back in college) disappeared from sight…
Another oldie but goodie (again, apologies for the few seconds of silence it takes to get to the intro). This song is the first that I really tried to record properly, written around Christmastime four or five years ago with my seventh grade…
Thank you very much. I just do what i do. I love music, and yours rocks. I like your music because acoustic is my first love. My father played acoustic guitar as a singer songwriter with my mother for over 30 years. So acoustic is my first an only love. I have GREAT respect for it. If you ever want to collaborat on anything be sure to let me know. I play out of a simple studio, in a trailer park in New Mexico. Also, i had to show "take me North" to my wife, we head north to the mountians every weekend to go camping so it is the perfect song for us. Nice to meet you, and keep playing the great music that you make.

After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

I was walking down an empty street late one night and thinking of different things while the fire of a song was burning in my head. then took the situation and looked at the parrellels in my life and from that came this song.
hope you like it! :)
For our beautiful son Willem, in French Guillaume.
recorded in my livingroom, 16-7-2009.
I called the song Guillaume before because of the beautiful sound.
Since 2012 I changed the title of the song into : Willem.
Because that makes much…

I originally intended to arrange this song more fully, but the thought of the Doctor singing to Amy with nothing but an acoustic guitar somehow worked for me.

This is a song that started as just an idea I had playing live one lovely thursday evening and I just started playing this progression and sang some gibberish over it and I came up with the "chorus" part and and the Idea of asking questions in…
This is just terrific! Now that my little ones are 5, 7, and 10, I can look back and laugh at the repetitive questioning... I almost miss it... Almost.
Such a great acoustic guitar-centered album. And this may be my favorite Calculus Affair song... Check that... This is definitely my favorite Calculus Affair song.

Ah, thanks for the clarification......still good!!

That is some harmony for a 15 year old! Love the tune!
Sam sounds like one of the Indigo Girls :-) Very nice song everyone!
Oh Man! That vocal is superb! And The Female vox fits in perfect! Great mix, and blend of intruments! I agree! This one is Eternal! A Superb Song! Faved!
That's a dandy. Charming tune.
Nice one man!
Great song, great duet. I just got back from there and this sure hit the spot!
Thanks again, professional?? AHAHAHA, naaa just having fun as usual. I took 2 music theory courses and then realized it was warping my brain, so i forgot it all and went back to playing what i love.
These are really great! D & R (Alias M & D)
I really like your style. This is another excellent song.
Great song, really great. I really like the vocals. it really sounds good guys.
There is an extreme difference between the southern desert and the northern desert. Give me the North. Great tune. -M
This is a great song! A man and his guitar... An awesome thing sir... Faved

Thanks for listening, Inge!... I appreciate your kind words as well... And I'm always willing to be dragged into the happiness!
Great stuff, Brian!
Really, this is a great song. I can't wait to hear more songs from you.
Beautiful.
Wow, what beautiful guitarwork!... Counterpointed by such powerful and direct lyrics. Wow.
Great song... I find my best songs are the ones I've written about my kids, but I must say that this one of yours tops them all.
Just dropping by to listen to this terrific song.
Wow.
Very smooth.
Ugh... Now that I hear this a few days later, I realize how badly I need to re-record the vocals.
I originally intended to arrange this song more fully, but the thought of the Doctor singing to Amy with nothing but an acoustic guitar somehow worked for me.
And here it is just a bit further down the playlist! Damn, just a great song!
Great delicate little song. What a nice sound!
This is just terrific! Now that my little ones are 5, 7, and 10, I can look back and laugh at the repetitive questioning... I almost miss it... Almost.
Great arrangement and a terrific song, Peter!
Another great track from this excellent album.
Such a great acoustic guitar-centered album. And this may be my favorite Calculus Affair song... Check that... This is definitely my favorite Calculus Affair song.
REALLY nice guitarwork. Just a really nice song.
Ooooooh. This I like, particularly the simple acoustic opening.
Ooooh.... Veerrrrrry nice. Wow.
