Began with the drum beat, added some guitar sounds, messed about with Revitar 2 and put them on top of the drums, did some experimenting with the lyrics, I looked up all the strains of weed and made a list of their names and made the song out…
A tribute to Hawkwind
The Surreal Age of the Naked Lemon
Haley's Comet flies across the English sky and the Saxon king will not survive
It's a dark dark omen a foreboding warning it's a dark dark Amen like a beautiful morning
On the…
I'm not really sure how this came about, I borrowed some lyrics from Angie Fights Crime and added a reggae sound and a remix to "The Surreal Age of the Naked Lemon" which I'm doing for the Rmp challenge and this sort of popped out ...

Traditional song with an electronic arrangement. I don't have autotune so some of the notes are a bit wobbly sometimes. I rewrote the lyrics because I don't know the original verses.

I've now done 2 for the Rpm challenge but these were the easy ones.
Too much rubbish (in the pockets of our lives)
Spend half your life waiting for a train
Now you get to thinking that you should have caught the bus
So your waiting at the station…
Oh thanks, that's nice of you to put it on your Facebook. I don't have one of those but Tess does.
The music was written for the ballet Scheherazade.
But I believe the legend, she was a real person although it has been romanticised somewhat!
Thank you for your kindness!
Cheers Bethan

Ooo, unusual topic. I like your voice and the music is perky and hopeful which works really well alongside the nature of your lyric. The decision is made and you are happy with it! Nice!!
Act 1 Scene 3 - A Night on the Town, a glimpse into Fool's social life which is ... going round to his mates and getting stoned, going to the pub and the disco in an attempt to get a girl, which he manages to do in the last song.
gonna listen to the rest later, but this album is really, really, really cool. It's like a mixture of everything I like, and yet sounds like none of them.
Act 2 Scene 2 - The Gig - Fool and his friend Hotdog go to see The Seven Spiders in concert but there is a really heavy atmosphere and the bouncers are being aggresive ... they leave before the end and walk home together, the conversation turns…
Act 1 Scene 1 The Disco - this is music from my musical, the opening scene which is set in a disco (nightclub - if you are under 40!!). It explores the different perceptions of the club in a pseudo-political and economic view. Mr Evol - the…
This song ties in with a novel I hope to finish before the world ends... The story is about two elite secret society brats that sail a plastic boat out to the great garbage patch, only to discover a new ecosystem of advanced life, made entirely…
12 string acoustic chords and vocals cover of Hawkwind's "Hurry on Sundown". I'm a bit of a hawkwind fan too. So glad to have my 12 string back with me.

I purchased a new M-Audio midi keyboard during RPM. The software alone was worth the $100.
There was no chance I was wasting any time during RPM with a learning process.
Today, I got the opportunity to install the software and plug it in. This…
You know I'm diggin' and scratchin' when I start
sounding like Jimmy Buffet elevator musak :)
Oooooo the delightful chaos of RPM
This has 2 percussion loops, midi drums, midi fretless bass, some midi strings, synths, and piano, 2 gallons of…
Supermarket music circa 1970's James Last would be proud of you. I don't mind this stuff at all sometimes we need something light and melodic to sooth the ruffled soul ...
I find it difficult to believe this is all Midi instruments.
The Midi guitars, bass & leads, I ran through amp sims.
The drums are all Midi. 7 tracks.
Kicker, snare, 2 tom tracks, high hat, tambourine, and a cowbell.
All done on the keys…
Well i didn't think the lyrics fitted the tune first time round so here's the second attempt............more a song from the miss spent youth that the man today......
ONE OF THEM DAYS (Lyrics)
The sunrise screams my mind wide awake
My head so…
My second attempt at the RPM challenge 2012......
DO WE STAY OR DO WE GO (Lyrics)
I drink to try and resolve all the problems that i know
i try to find some kind of escape but i’m afraid that i’m just too late
all my thoughts they whirl around…
I was listening to Jesmiaus earlier Trick of your love (RPM2012) and it gave me an idea for my first RPM this year...so thanks Will...... hope you all enjoy this....i did doing it...they say smoking weed can make you schitzophrenic but i’m not…
The mans back home but he feels unsafe .....he felt safer in the war zone ...........he's a broken man.........what he's seen and done has destroyed him.......

Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
Brilliant, so impressed. I don't suppose you ever listened to Johnathan Richman and the Modern Lovers from late 1970's, your music is kinda the same in that it's really quirky and off-beat and lyrically very clever :)
Comments on The Old Grey Wolf Ltd Co's stuff
Lovely track!
mmmm - sounds right tasty.
Liked this a lot.
Wondefull work in every aspect Big upps to the old grey wolf ltd
@CMOR I think it's about 400 years old so I don't think anyone will be claiming copyright on it lol
Very interesting cover... Is it scarboro fair-trade? ;^D
Great tune and great mixing.
Love this take on Angie's lyrics (and then some!) - and as ever, I love your music, and your style! Smooooooth!!
I like this track... It takes me all over the mental map, right to where 'X' marks the spot!
I like the green maschine taste buds:)
The theremin sounds are a nice effect.

Like those dancing keys

Maybe I'll roll one this weekend...ha!
Very enjoyable song about marry Jane:) Digging your vocals.
excellent work, love the album, really beautiful. It's like a modern pilgrim's progress... or something. ha.
gonna listen to the rest later, but this album is really, really, really cool. It's like a mixture of everything I like, and yet sounds like none of them.
Lovely stuff. I like the quirkiness, the fun music and your extraordinary vocal. Spellbinding!
A wonderful opener.....

Great production :)
One of my favourite songs ... great choice.

Bluer than blues, excellent O2bfree!!
Wow, you sound just like Alice Cooper on this, loved the intro
Nice
Funky and strange, love it very well done is this the last of your Rpm challenge?
Excellant and wonderfully zany!!
Scary stuff ...

Ahh it's Jesmius, Hi - nice tune and some freaky sounds, I'm a sucker for freaky!!
Cool, very seventies prog rock. :)
Whoa ... wicked!! :)
:) Yea!!
Wow, in some really weird way this reminds me of early Kate Bush and therefore totally brilliant and wonderfully eccentric. So good :)
Seems a common theme today, I just uploaded my new song for RPM and that's about smoking weed too. :) Some nice guitar work.
Me too!!
Wicked!!
Love it ... shared it on Facebook as I'm sure some of my friends would like it too ...
