Can't help but wonder...

You spend your whole life writing the words

Here to sing to the world or die trying

So, my 2020 started with losing Bandit.
THE LAST LONG WALK
You woke me up at 4AM this morning
And told me that you had to see the sights
I'd read all the signs and heard the warnings
I couldn't put you through another night
So we walked…

It was a rough year.
This instrumental is pretty much how it felt.
I'm sure you can relate.

How it must feel to be owned by the musical machine.
BLEEDING OUT
You didn't know me, lured me in like a tease
And now that you own me, you can play me whenever you please
Why did I ever let you into my soul
Now I know you'll never let…

I'm betting we all wrote a pandemic song or two this year. As of the time I uploaded this song, I haven't seen my parents in eleven months, and I haven't seen my sisters in thirteen.

The rain falls on my shoulders

This moment seems to hang and float

Reach out for the sun,

Warmth on your face
Move to a better place

I'm not

I don't want to be

words lost their meaning
I cannot reach you anymore

This song is about my Grandparent's farm that was in West Virginia. The name "Naugatuck" is derived from an Algonquian term meaning "lone tree by the fishing place". The rich memories I have of the place are from when I was just shy of my sixth…

Carl wrote this song somewhere around July of 2020. Back in the 80's we had a song we wrote/performed called "Louisa". I don't know if the subject matter is related. Carl recorded the song with just him and his guitar. I imported into my Tascam…

This was the 12th song started this month and it's the 14th song finished. It's important in that it officially makes me a winner for FAWM this year, but it's unimportant for the RPM Challenge as this puppy goes straight to the dropped song list…

First "real" song I finished, way back in the day for RPM09, and that pointed the direction for where things would eventually go.
Uploaded
Moving on to RPM10, which although the sound quality was relatively poor remains one of my favorite albums I've written.
Uploaded
Also from RPM10, I felt like I had to revisit this one just because I love the absurd time signatures.
Uploaded
From RPM11, which never saw a proper release...but here's an 8-bit revisit anyway.
Uploaded
Another from RPM11 - when I went back to re-learn this one so I could transcribe it into the 8 bit format, I thought, "I'm really glad I came up with this riff."
Uploaded
From RPM17 -- there were so many I liked there it was hard to choose, so I went with this one that is the default choice on the Bandcamp page.
Uploaded
From RPM19 - this was the riff while writing that album that took the longest to mangle into a proper song, but eventually became one of my favorites from it.
Uploaded
And finally, a track that I wrote back in 2014 that never got a proper release but should get posted in its heavy guitar glory on a new album later this year.
Uploaded
A raw & acapella unleashing with no effects whatsoever - aural apologies but RPM deadline looms and I wanted something full frontal.
Caveat leo feminam!
