Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.

Richard I am Following this, Good results so far. I think the brass and strings might rub nicely with B3 organ. I dont know if thats possible , but it just pops in my mind.

Thank you so much, Richard for your kind words. Glad we got you up dancing on, "old". I had trouble standing still when I was recording the vocal. LOL!
I wish I could find the right words of what your music does for me. I'm always moved. It takes me somewhere. You are so very talented. XO

Hey Richard...thanks and yes I used to go to the Owl Bar.(my wife used to work across the street from the Belvedere a long time ago)..and it is still open, but I have not been there in years. lover this piece of music by the way...great mood music!!

Great title for this sombre piece. For some reason it brought a mental picture of Arlington Cemetry to mind so I hopefully got the feel that you intended. Fine work

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
I posted this song a few days ago and Bethan liked the music so much she wrote her own words. Here it is, a co-write across the Atlantic.
SITTING BY THE WINDOW, NOTHING TO DO
WAITING FOR THE TIME WHEN THE SUN SHINES THROUGH
THE SUN SHINES…

west Texas meets west abbey,,yes it's very fun, a nice colab and mix,, thanks,, just the thing to wake up to,, which is what i tryien to do just now,, though the sun isn't shinning through
Inspired by the "Metal for Life" Column in the Guitar World Feb 2012 issue, I stuck to the original etude probably only 80% or so and changed the arrangement, plus added an extra solo section in the middle.
wow!,,rather amazing, this is something i had not envisioned before,, like it very much,,you do a splendid job of hitting the right key,,, also,,, thanks for your kind words richard
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
most lovely ,,,, im not much of a singer myself, but if there are words that call to you why not give it a go,,, then we can all have 2 songs to fav...... the cadence of this is very nice and most comforting ,,, merry mid winter
This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
A little bit of pop with a strong 80s touch (I hope).

Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!

I found a cassette tape the other day from 1991 which turned out to be live to 2 track demos that Scartaglen did in the studio in preparation for our 3rd and (as it turned out) final album. This tune didn't make the cut for the record but I always…
dancing, singing,,, the wind with a smile on it's face as it listens at the door,,, with this and many of your tunes ,, you bring a magic, to the air, well played

Verrrrry nice, Richard... Captured the mood perfectly.
It's a cool tool.
Richard, I love where you're going. Beautiful! w;-)
Lovely! Shaping up to be a hell of a RPM for you
Tasty
Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.
Really nice baroque piece!
Richard I am Following this, Good results so far. I think the brass and strings might rub nicely with B3 organ. I dont know if thats possible , but it just pops in my mind.
Again Richard, this is absolutely beautiful! w;-)

Keep reading and keep experimenting and playing. I'm loving it.
Great title for this sombre piece. For some reason it brought a mental picture of Arlington Cemetry to mind so I hopefully got the feel that you intended. Fine work
Nice work, and realistic I'd say.
Lovely!
This is a very moving piece of music. Excellent.
A rich and full sound. Beautiful
These are both lovely! Looking forward to the rest!
Wow! First effort? Gorgeous!
Works for me.

very nice,, if i could not play the piano (when i grow up) i would like to be a percussionist,, you make it sound soooo good
aaaah improv the freedom to be,, to play, to explore,,, this is a very beautiful journey/study into one of the many musical side streets,,, very fine
very nice, and yes i think it has that bygone era feel/style,, fun piece
nicely rich in sound scape,,, mostly the precussive instrument family? i like the airyness of this,, (wish i knew how to spell)
interesting,, is this a standard tuning?
excellent.. agree with what Norm said,,very nice
i was interrupted, when i listened before, it is a pretty cool loop
very very fine,, leaves much to think about..

dancing, singing,,, the wind with a smile on it's face as it listens at the door,,, with this and many of your tunes ,, you bring a magic, to the air, well played
