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…
If you would like to hear the voice of one of my vocally talented students, though, come on over and listen to "Take Me North" with Ashley... Now that kid is going to be some singer!

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!
Faved!

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
My how you've grown up after oh so many years
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.

So it has been a while since my last RPM. I felt this song was the best was to reintroduce myself with the insane process that is the RPM Challenge....
First in a planned series of American traditional folk tunes presented as simple guitar instrumentals.
Here's the lyrics if you want to sing along:
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?
I…
Analyze analytical actions I suppose
Formatting frustration fickle fascination falls
Recite riddles maybe, or measure many moves
Controlling correct posture
Pulsing perpendicular
(Chorus)
I know to some degree the source of the lyrical…
I know why you love The Starry Night
I know why you weren't all right
I know why you couldn't stay
I know why you're here today
I know why you couldn't see
I know why, 'cuz you were me
I know why you loved to paint in blue
I know why…
This is ridiculously good. I've been asking myself lately where I've heard this amazing song before, and I keep having to remind myself it was earlier this February. It has taken a place in my mind as something I've heard on the radio. It's that good.

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!

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

Yup, this is my favorite song on the album (well, at least so far - I've got three tracks left)!
Oh, yes. This is niiiiiiiiice.
Soooo good to hear new stuff from you! Settling in for some MTC goodness right now!!!
Oh, yes. this is sooooooooooooooo good.
Outstanding.
Oh, this is masterfully played. Just lovely.
Okay, this is just beyond lovely.
Dude, this is great! Looooooove the energy!
Well, this is lovely!
Dude, I'm firing up a new project if you want to join in the mayhem!
Ahhhhhhh... This very much satisfies my Gary Fox fix.
Dang. Ass kicking right from the rip. Sooooo damn good.
Happy to see people digging this simple arrangement with harmonized vocals. I happen to love it as well, so thanks, gang!
Brilliant from the first note. My jealousy for your guitar skill knows no bounds. A masterful album, my friend.
LOVE this.
This is lovely.
Loved this song from the first note I heard at the start of the month. So beautifully arranged.
Dang. Just masterful songwriting, musicianship, vocal talent, production quality.
This is absurdly good. Reminds me of Maine folk singer/songwriter Jud Caswell. Just beautiful. And that chorus. Oh my.
