The Quarantine Tunes thing is definitely scraping the bottom of the barrel. I am supposed to be pulling songs from old recording projects and updating and (theoretically) improving them. After five rounds there isn't a whole lot left to use…

The unsuccessful RPM Challenge in 2009 had two songs that weren't disgustingly bad. I uploaded a version of one the other day. This is the other. Nothing really noteworthy here. I had a new harmony on the first chorus that I during the mix…

It's getting silly now. I haven't finished Quarantine Tunes Volume 5 (actually, volume 50/90) and here I am uploading the first song for Volume 6. What a moron!

I forgot about voice memos until Kavin did one. So here I take a snippet of Shane's synth idea and let Apple provide the backing.

Second OP-1 track. Very much an experiment and practice, but I'll keep uploading them to keep a record, and force myself to be as thorough as I can.

Well this one goes straight to the garbage pile. It's not the worst song of the month but I would be pretty happy if I never heard it again as long as I live.

Heres a story of a cold cold house
They walk by
Trying as they do to catch a glimpse, of life inside the cold, cold house
But the dark of the windows only reflect themselves

This is a cover of a song written by my songwriter friend Mike Miller. I always thought he brought a unique perception to his writing. He gave permission for me to cover the piece. You can check him out at:

Another song for Quarantine Tunes Volume 50/90. I finished off the 2021 50/90 with a lot of crappy songs and a handful that I thought were worthy of a closer look. This one is fun. Nothing like bashing your head against some nice heavy rock…

The story of Abel Blood's haunted grave. Some say on certain nights, the finger engraved on his headstone which normally points upward, will be pointing down. Is Abel inviting you to join him? Happy Halloween.

Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…

Another one from the archives! Collab with glu from 2009 - I took his original guitar track and added vocals, then he remixed and made about four more versions, but this is my fave.

I dreamed this song a while ago. Sort of a music circle in a pub. Lots of instruments and percussion and what not. I quite like it :)

Jam track or for meditation.
Trying out the iTabla app, added bass and guitar to the tabla/tanpura loop.

Brian wrote a song.
Wilsun covered it.
Wilsun gave me his Garageband file.
I teamed up with a robot orchestra and we made this.
Hopefully Brian and Wilsun will like it.

Me and Mrs Rottenhead nearly parted our ways, but we pulled through stronger than ever. Phew!

And watch the world unfurl

Please don’t pick at that scab

I lived in the Red River area of north Texas just south of Lake Texoma for many years. It's a growing area, like most of Texas now, but at one time it was the best kept secret in the state. Also the latest addition to the Cheap Peavey Blues.

This is a single mono synth, in one take, doing everything at the same time (plus some external effects, also recorded live).
Just an experiment, first jam on the instrument, so it's a bit poor, but promising, IMO.

I'll be honest... I was somewhat disappointed with my RPM Challenge 2021 effort, so I took it down.
I've remixed, and heavily re-edited this track, as it used to be a tortuous 13 minutes long.
I'm redoing another track as I was a bit slapdash…
