“It’s My Life” was written, recorded, and mixed on February 24-25, for the 2024 RPM Challenge. "It's My Life" written by W. Ng.

A saucy little ditty from the Jip and LJ laboratory. The first thing I've sung for 3 weeks (been resting a very strained voice - eek!) I'm having a party, I'm inviting everyone There'll be much frivolity, booze flowing, so much fun I may…

This is from years ago, living in santa fe. I loved driving around in my little 1980s toyota corolla and listening to cassettes. I loved the way they sounded. So I took a piano song I was working on, recorded it to cassette, dragged mic…

the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later

This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better.... Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.

Product of noodling around. Lead guitars are a combo of UAD's Nigel plugin and the Fractal Axe Fx. Clean guitars are the Fractal. The outro guitars are my Princeton Recording amp. I played the piano's through my midi guitar and Axon. You can…

Got the 12 string out of the shop today where it got a refret and much needed refurb. An improv to test it out. Recorded on the handheld R08.

Norm's Percussion inspired this one. Great audio clips of Duke Kahanamoku and his polar opposite, Miki Dora (Da Cat)

Syd was one of a kind. Recorded live with backing vocal added.

From the 2010 RPM Challenge

Starting out as a simple and awe inspiring invention, progressing to a more chaotic and demanding machine driven future. - people becoming enslaved to these devices. Feeding the machine. Phone samples were recorded from the output jack of my…

Well obviously it was meant to be a song but I ran out of time.

Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!

Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.

This tune was written on the day I bought my vintage Yamaha CP-25 electric piano and returned to hear that Dennis Hopper had passed away. I fired up the gear and cranked this out. The sound of the piano made me feel like Ray Manzarek...thus the…

Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics. Im talking, she's texting Im givin…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I was asked (told?) to upload something happy. Hmmm, I thought. This will end well... So, a few days later, I was rehearsing a pleasant little thing I wrote several years ago that has a working title of "She Was…

Reg is feeling lonely...he needs to feel some love...he wants to be surrounded by love.... the loneliness is getting unbearable for him........ i want love i need it now i want love to take me over right now i want love i want love i want…

Thru this together this morning. A lil Jimi tribute before I change these strings.

This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…

And then came a lion... Conga / Harmonica (key of D) improvisation. 4/4 90bpm

Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.

The coffee table gang helped me round out this one that I shared earlier. I love this version with Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor's wonderful talents on the backup vocals and guitars. I like how my ukulele blended in on this version. Sometimes…

I uploaded this one earlier in the month with a rough track. Colin W. and Greg Connor helped me improve the arrangement and we recorded it at Winterland Studios this past week with some amazing equipment and awesome sound mixing support from…

A collab with LJ. You may have heard it with a Burnley accent. This is a softer version.

Improv lead over some random home grown acoustic looping. Bass bumpin' old west style.

Ok here's the whole enchiada. Consists of the tracks Alnilam,Alnitak and Mintaka.

DREAMS OF THE OCEAN Your kids'll be waking up in the morning Just a couple of hours after mine have gone to bed I've got the coffee warming While dreams of the ocean are in your daughters' heads I taught them all 'bout it late last evening…

Speechwriters can be selfish. Or not?

For the RPMC album "Sabbatical"

something that started life while jamming an MPC against a Roland 555. No explicit story, it just kind of happened. Then got mixed.

Where do they go? A true friend for the end? Call! Wish they could let me know, They’re coming back for the end. Call! High time to, Come back on through, Call! Call! Ain’t no point to show it, Give up the pretend, Call! Caught…

Listen here Listen real close Got something to tell you Heavy like a stone ​ What you thought would always be true Has been lost I though you knew ​ In pastel suburbs It all seemed true ​ These pastel suburbs I see right through…

I don’t need money I don’t need fame Will you listen Well that’s a shame Won’t you leave the light on And watch your step I don’t hear what you say Cap knows all I got a story And some news Will you listen I got some advice for…

Robbie had recorded most parts to a song and asked Kenny to come up with some lyrics. Robbie Robinson – songwriting, guitars, background vocals Kenny Tannehill – lyrics, lead vocals Margaret Bibb – background vocals Kevin Craig – drums…
