I have never written a song about the RPM Challenge itself, until now. Have we really been here for 15 years? It needed to be fun, it needed to be a great dance number. I had the gtr riff, and realized it would be even better as a horn line. The…

You Are Free....a fun tune from Prood jam session

I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get. I like to imagine…

This one came solely as the chorus melody and the basic hook "So I'll sing my song for Carolina" It's all I had for months, but I thought it was a good chorus line so I kept humming it to see if it would sprout further ideas. The mid section is…

Thanks Movement to Contact for the backtrack... I needed the practice for sure!

Home from work for 9 days. How is everyone doing? Stay safe and have fun on this weird global time off! got a new FX peddle , super octave, that im using here instead of a bass guitar. Enjoy! Reef

This is a recording from my i phone off my back deck at home in Mill Valley tonight. Everyone howls at 8 pm for 1 minute in solidarity for the healthcare providers during this pandemic with COVID 19. its been going on for over 2 weeks now…

C.S. Lewis once wrote about the concept of "out of simple evil comes complex good." These are trying times, an understatement if there ever was one. As you read this, you have uncertainties and fears for what our current situation means for right…

Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…

Back to those 80's synthwaves and young skertchy feelings:)

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…

Cleaning up the computer and finding a couple of different ideas on tracks...

This is bathed in reverb... probably too much! It's got a bit of a Southern Rock vibe at 1:00 to 1:45- then it has a big 'glow-stick Prog Rock' ending to it

Here an acoustic trial session of a song I’m playing around with at the moment. It’s half in French and half in English for now. One day, when time allows me :-) I will add musical instruments. For now questioning myself whether to do keep this…

It was about time I got on with musical expression. This song is about our interconnectedness. Our identity. Serious mystic stuff eh? Yeah - wait until you hear it - haha. Said the snail to the bird how's your flight? If I had your wings I…

The pie is ready, no need to cook it no more.

Whiling away a few of hours with this ditti. Can't say who this was about, but no-one on this site knows her.

I did this about 2 years ago and only found it the other day. I think it sounds like something Robbie Williams would sing - and not really my style or cup of tea. It's a bit anthemic "come on and join in" (no thanks). Add to that I my singing…

every year we all go fishing in Mexico. here is a tale about the American Tourist, It might be a true story , You decide. I' m busy fishing

Collaboration with Freight Drive Reprobates (music) and Darkarma (lyrics). Don't think it's my best, but it's been hanging around for so long, I needed to get it out so I can move on to the next one :) Enjoy!

Passover is a time for redemption from exile and all kind of disasters in our lives. I really tried to make this a happier upbeat track.

...of music in my thoughts as i work on it. But - what was it ? I don´t know.

it's getting late so theres no time for finness it might be here by the morning ..... DOING THE SOLITARY TANGO Sitting on the 13th floor, looking over London The clouds are filling up with dead mens tears Everyones feeling like their a little…

The closing number, the thoughtful number. It says more than goodbye.

I have had this riff for a while. It needed a song. It needed cowbell. It got both, and it's a great song to drive to.

This one came to me as I was sleeping on a plane, delayed on a tarmac. I dreamt that McCartney was singing this, sort of. I came out of the dream abruptly when the pilot said we were finally cleared to take off. I racked my brain to figure out…

This one started as the verse chords and some rambling vox melody. My demo of just gtr and me mumbling resulted in something vaguely Lennon-esque in delivery, so I kept that aspect and took it further for the mid section. The harmonies in the…

The word agony and the basic melody for the first line came first. I sat on it for a while, then one evening tried to figure out the chords for it. The verse chords followed very quickly, effectively falling out of the gtr after I had discovered…

A total gtr inspired tune. The riff came first and I knew it needed thunderous drums. The rest fell into place. I envisioned this one being very Top of The Pops on a Saturday in 1971, or Granada TV in summer of' 70, depending on your point of…

Joanna Hone recorded her vocals on her phone and sent them to us.

This is dedicated to all the frontline workers out there during our fight with this dreadful virus.

It's ok. 136 BPM Standard Tuning If anyone is interested in trying their own lead on this track let me know i will upload just the backing track. Take care everyone and stay safe

We live in strange times ...... YOU ALL KEEP SAFE. Here's a silly little video : https://youtu.be/TDLWznedHRo
