This fulfills a stupid promise I made years ago to write a song that was part Dave Frishberg, part Richard Thompson.

A totally sheltered and unable to cope middle-class white kid screws up really badly and is on the run. I don't think he'll make it. Do you?

from the RPM 2009 album, "Spilt Hony" This was an experiment to write a song using one sentence. I ended up with 3 small ones.

I was just imagining a morning at the Waits household.

A fantastical farcical Irish story-song. Broadway Irish.

dedicated to the late great John Martyn

Spoiler here: This song ends on a down note, but not to despair. The sequel to this disk starts right where this one fades off and will be titled "...Not Forgotten". This song was done in a way that implies a live show, like a few of the other…

There was an entirely separate piece under this name, nearly finished two days before the 09 RPM challenge finished, but while taking a break before getting ready to do the final mix this version came to me in the shower. Sadly, the towel wiped…

Another synth driven track, exploring the new found instrument. My usual style of singing behind the beat doesn't work as well here as I would have liked, but it may get redone soon. We shall see. More positive lyrics over fairly dark music…
