Trying out a Carol Kaye-inspired bassline here (not completely succesfull; gotta work on my timing some more) and again didn't manage to come up with lyrics. Espresso Martini is a really nice cocktail with coffee you can get at the club/bar where…

when i was 18 i took in a runaway

i played her music and i cooked her food

i let her sleep late and i paid her way
then her dad showed up one day

this was one of the hardest to do, the 2nd half was great, but i hated the first half and was stressing with getting it to gel. so i scrapped it completely and started over. i think it was a wise decision.

that is not a sample you hear in the background, it is the dryer going. leave it in? okay, sure i'll leave it in. it's these artistic decisions we're all forced to make.

*Dark modern electronic guitar rock*
You can hear it just below the blowing wind
Feel it in the nerves beneath your skin
Catch a glimpse as you drift away at night
But you can’t decode the meaning inside
Distant shrieking sets your teeth…

An attempt to evoke images that weren't in the first-person. I tend to write in abstract fragments and this piece is no exception.

An older song from a previous band that was never quite captured to my satisfaction. I was going for very laid-back "Pale Blue Eyes" vibe.

this is based on the soundtrack of a film called september clues very interesting dunno if its true but fun all the same for conspiracy nuts....

I'd be lying if I said this entire track wasn't sparked by the opening audio clip. It really made me think about the ways some people create their own enjoyment. Cool.

Original working title was something like, "And after six years I finally understood why they sing in the streets here, and could go home." It's sort of about anonymity in the modern city. If that sounds pretentious, that's because it is.

*Electronic rock*
I am painting a picture with blood and wire
I am writing my story in glass and fire
It's almost right
It's almost nice
Just one more twist and I'll be fixed
Perfect, so perfect
This pound of flesh
Perfect, so perfect…

written as it was recorded as a live 3 piece, we then slathered it with vocals, and chris kearsey on guitar. Fun stuff!

I love the Commodore 64. Still have two of them. And a C-128. For me, this song captures the loony spirit of some of the Commodore games I loved playing.

Distorted synths and drums, with some grit and an e. e. cummings poem read by the man himself. I am particularly fond of how this one came together, especially at the end.

A dance sundae with some samples sprinkled on top. Not my favorite, but was fun to record.

A lonely, slow, tune... with a forlorn and sometimes tense distorted guitar (actually my bass). Good music to listen to as you zone out and stare into space.

This is the first track I recorded for my 2009 RPM Challenge CD. The music was written in January, but the lyrics were written by a good friend of mine, Sparky Adams, in 1972 right after he returned from Vietnam. Check it out!

Written and performed quickly (approx 2 hours) during a "dark day". This is not a political song but rather a song about the "helpless feeling" during the current strange economic times.

Tartessos (possibly the "Tarshish" of the Bible) was a fabulous city in Southern Spain that the Greeks and Phoenecians often visited. I wanted to evoke a sense of adventure.

The grandiflora rose, Shining Hour, is extremely floriferous with high-centered yellow blooms. The bush has good vigor with medium green, glossy foliage and an upright, dense habit.

Perfect Moment features a unique yellow-based bloom with red tips. Its buds open in a slow spiral to show high-centered, heavy blooms that last well. The plant has dark green, leather-like foliage and excellent disease resistance.

reading too much sci-fi makes you paranoid and using too many effects pedals can make your songs repetitive, loud, and long.

This is a track of serendipity (is that how you spell that?) I was hours from deadline, lots of mixing left to do, and this track was FAR from done. I love the congas in this one. In general, this is a fun one for me. For once I actually don't…

The closing track of Dearly Departed. I will come back, but I don't know where or when. Open, ethereal, a departure in terms of tone, and for me.

Stripped down, I almost did this one as a live, one take vox and gtr "on-mike" bit. I did the song, kind of liked, but decided to do a tracked version, just to see what it would sound like. Ended up liking it more.

This song sounds best if you can drive through Hollywood Hills, or anywhere in Southern CA. Funny how I happen to live in NH, eh? Another song that came from a simple gtr line (the intro).
