A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye

what a great collection of songs. very inspiring. i think of ditching the band and doing a solo acoustic thing. this makes me think even harder. great words. your vox keeps getting stronger . great stories. incredible rpm effort!
The title track for this year's RPM album. One mic. Live take. Please forgive the missed notes.

This year will be my fifth year coaching one of my daughters in tee ball, and although I played ball competitively into my thirties, coaching the kids is easily the most fun I've ever had on the diamond.

One of the first songs I ever wrote... When we bought our first house, we had a nice big back yard on a 1/3 acre lot... With the train tracks just on the other side of the back fence.
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.

Your strumming arm is like a piston on this one! The lyrics could be appreciated by anyone who works for a living. Another delightful tune, wonderfully performed!

I am really impressed that you only used one microphone! You have a really pleasant and earnest voice....a little like John Denver, who was my first influence on guitar. This is a GREAT tune! A great start.
A few months back, Jim (MTC) posted an outstanding acoustic track which summoned up a clear-as-day memory from my childhood. The vividness of that memory resulted in this song... Amazing how such significant events in your life (like recognizing…
Don't tell me how it is, I'm good, I got it, I got it. But are we blind, and are there cracks in a facade? The riff was what came first, probably while watching the idiot box one evening. I am pretty sure it came very soon after RPM '15, and I…

Well, my friend, I find myself back in your playlist - somewhere I need to be more frequently. As I put the finishing touches on another album, I wonder if there's any music left in me. Then I listen to your magnificent music - spectacular songwriting from a tremendous mind who cares about the world in the same way but expresses it differently - and I want to see the world differently, write about it differently, sing about it differently.
I thank you from across the Atlantic for your musical support in the past and the way I know your music will continue to inspire me in the future.
This is a song of hope. I hope ya'll enjoy. I used reason for the backing track and my phone to record guitar and vox.

Guess I didn't get the hint
Still trippin' on my footprints
Clean my cuts and reminisce,

Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.
It's one of 9 songs we will be taping for Community TV, thanks to the *Minnesota Association Of SongWriters*

Mr. Keith Landry was kind enough to let me have a play around with the title track from his very excellent rpm album.. This was the outcome. If you haven't, check out Keith's album.. Tis truly a thing of beauty
This song is written by Keith Landry.
He asked me to sing it and off course I wanted that!!
Thank you Keith!
About "Keep It Simple (with Inge)"
Well, I wrote this song as a note to my wife (who makes lists from time to time). I thought…
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Well, Well, Well- There is still unadulterated, unabashed love in the world. Yes, the song is masculine sounding, no shock there, since I am a guy. However, despite a friend’s comments to the contrary, I didn’t intend this song to be about getting…
My song for the 2014 RPM Christmas Challenge. It's all over the place with style, kind of like random presents under the tree. ;)
Merry Christmas to you!

Hell YEAH!
Oh my. I've been away far too long. Brilliant from the opening notes. I need to go back to songwriting school. Tharek 101 is in session.

Just back to listen to this little slice of goodness.
Oh, yeah. That's the spot.
Dang.
LOVE it.
Dang.
Hey, nice work making my little acoustic track into something so much more! NICE groove.
Time to start recording and posting more music Inge. Don't keep that angel's voice of yours hidden.
I love this today as much as I did the first time I heard you sing it!
Nope. Wrong again. THIS is the best of the best.
I was wrong before. THIS is the best of the best.
This might be the best of the best.
Soooooo good.
Seriously, man. This is just so right.
Oh, now that I'm logged in (yes, you may have guessed that the "Dang" comment came from me), I can properly fave this track.
Yeah, this one turned out pretty amazing.
Oooo... Love the stuff at 1:30 or so!
First rate track...
