First off, damn sad about the finger. I cannot relate to cutting it off, but I can relate to burning the skin off ( dishwasher incident of 2010- of smashing it flat @ work) so I do understand what you have been going through. It really sucks man. Second amazing track. Vocals spot on, mix is great, and very glad to see your new track up on A.T. Third-ly :) any time you might be in or passing through this area...or meeting up in carlsbad we have to meet up and jam, --- or if I am in that area on vacation--also have a good friend in denver who jams a mean piano/harmonica we have to get something going. Killer track bud, and hope you heal up quick and get the music flowing. Best Wishes your way! -JG
"No ducks were hurt or killed during the production of the tune" is perhaps more of a reflection of your shooting skills as opposed to your musical skills. ;)
I’m glad your finger is better – I misunderstood how it was hurt. Garcia never let something as trivial as a finger slow him down either.
Oh, this is priceless! Where do I start?
1. I'm sorry to hear you got punched in the nose.
2. Get your camo off and head over to my house- I have the orange sauce waiting and the grill is hot.
3. Either those are field recordings or your calling is even better than I remember.
4. The first 3 shots were yours, which was always your way of saying "uh, guys, there's some Sprigs overhead..". The last shot, of course mine - which actually produced a Sprig.
Excellent! Very clever.
You never would have caught me playing this genre a few years ago. WHat the hell happened ??
All the instruments were recorded with an open mic at my house. Which, as you know is always a chaotic place to record :) If you listen hard enough…
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
I still vote this for best home studio musician track of the decade. If you can't relate...buy a microphone. I was trying to record vocals the the collab with Epimeison yesterday and right in the middle of take 2, what decides to appear...an ice cream truck. REALLY?? You have a whole freakin park across wash and you choose my street with all of 3 kids to sell to!?! The economy must have really taken it's toll on the mobile frozen milk delivery service. WTF?!? Love it, fav it again if I could.
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.

This is a collab tune which was originally written by Tad Rees (aka Solo). He plays the Keyboard.synth, and I did the guitar and drums. The last half blends with his original which can be heard in completion at :

This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
A little dark......
I stand at the junction between life & death
As the count begins to rise
The darkened moon weeps but is blind to the grief
Of the ones left behind
We weep but we can not hide
Daytime nighttime the hunt for…
Poor old Reg everything was going swimmingly until he fell of the wagon, 6 weeks dissapeared and guess what his wife didn't understand and he's out on his ear again, he's got no one to blame but himself but he's gone a bit weird this time…
How are you friend?? I need to get on AT more often. dont know if its covid or what, but many great peeps and tunes of late. Makes me happy. I like the ambiance change at 1:20
I wrote this one in response to a song writing challenge from the Minnesota Association of Songwriters. The title had to be Mississippi Moon and it had to have a I V VI I II chord progression somewhere in the song. Over 20 writers have signed…
Music written and performed by Mike Smith, also known as Dragonsong.
When Mike first asked me to read this poem, he believed it was written around the time of the Spanish Flu...but, our sources say no. It was most likely written by Kitty O…

And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard.
Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…
Nice song. Like the stop up at 2:00. Pretty intense. I’m laughing a bit about the name ‘lament ‘which obviously was supposed to be ‘the practical gardener’. That sounds familiar with my stuff too., lol. 15 years can put a new perspective on almost anything. Cheers.
Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
So it has been a while since my last RPM. I felt this song was the best was to reintroduce myself with the insane process that is the RPM Challenge....
I have a new love in my life A Kemper this is the first recording using it. John https://thebigbaddog.co.uk/ is playing guitar i'm theo ne warbleing. Trying to get a different slant on a classic for the band this is as far as we got today but…
Comments on Reefwalker's stuff
Great listen, nice changes of sound. Top quality vocals that reminded me in parts of the Alabama Three
Love the rich guitar...man
Dreamy and cool with an exceptionally delish vocal! Yum! (Obv. the "yum" was with reference to the duck, if my mother is looking.)
really cool! like that gun shot at the end!
Very Smooth sounds! Quite an abrupt ending........ Atta Boy Reefwalker!!!!!!!
Bruce, I love this track! Welcome back to AT and to Pro Tools 9 Brother!!!!!!!

Good one.

I agree with the voice comments...fantastic.
Man I just *love* your voice. The music and mood is great - but you have a great voice. Bummer on the injury.
Oh, this is priceless! Where do I start? 1. I'm sorry to hear you got punched in the nose. 2. Get your camo off and head over to my house- I have the orange sauce waiting and the grill is hot. 3.

that's what a banjo can do....and of course delilah...sweet
Great sound!Like he beat..the talk over...nice
I still vote this for best home studio musician track of the decade. If you can't relate...buy a microphone.

That is really cool Bruce! Very inspiring....... I'm taking my Zoom field recorded "Into the Field" to get some "Sounds of Hollywood"!
Nice tune. Very chill and relaxing. :)

How are you friend?? I need to get on AT more often. dont know if its covid or what, but many great peeps and tunes of late. Makes me happy. I like the ambiance change at 1:20
i like the bass in here and the FX are prefect for the mood. the ending drone reminds me of the Beatles "I want you" vibe which i love.

Wonderful Tune! Great to hear from you!!
