RPM 2013 feat. Gary Fox instrumentation
quiet down now, world
bring the lights down, world
we're going to paint a little
pitch black moment
hush those city lights
those neon lullabies
we're off and dreaming with our
eyes wide open…
woooooowoooo, wait on a mooooooment,, what a coool sound here,,,,,,im a dancing in my chair,, and my pup is looking up at me from the floor and thinking ,,, what the #@#^*!@@ is that old guy doing,,,, but it's ok he love to boogie toooo,,, boogie on reg!!!
pretty cool,, reminds me a bit of Vince G. (the fellow who did cast your fate to the wind and the Charlie Brown sound tracks) there's a nice whole feeling to this r
Thank you, Fox News, for letting me borrow some of your broadcast from the state of the union in this... song...ish...thing.
i.e. please don't sue me :)
interesting, is this music/politics/art... all three i think! a cool mix of creativity,, and on a personal note i myself have two arms,,and i hope the let me keep them r,, at the end and all again i say quite interesting r
Dystopian Anthem
----------------
Together we strive
United, we divide
the night fire we've made
are ours to take
We gain what we earn
earn what we can take
family, we all share
In this world to create
very cool,, your sound/notes are rich and full, it all blends together very well,, seems like a very late night time, with the lights down low type of piece to me,,,
A noodle that turned into a doodle which turned into a song....thats what you get when you watch David Attenborough's Africa on TV................
No Rain (Lyrics)
The earth was scorched as dry as stone
nothing anywhere wanted to grow
the Devil…
As if I was a tree,
And would stand in the woods,
Taking the rain and the snow.
As if I was a tree,
Standing in the field,
Looking at the eternal movement of the clouds.
As if I was,
as if ...
A lil rocker influenced by some of my faves, Springsteen, Petty etc.. well i left my home and family
and made my way out west
i lost my job at the steel mill
im a hoping for the best
in this life
for my kids and wife
just outside of Davenport…
love it!!! bit of a magical feel, as this rolls over the headphones into the ears and on to the heart on a late friday eve,, the ending seems a bit abrupt,,, yes..no... planned,,perhaps i just a bit too old to get it? lovely piece r
FOUND IN THE MOVEMENT
She moves in a spinning reminder
A violent link to the past
Don't you dare try to define her
She might not be big, but she's fast
A release of God-given aggression
An arm near her head in defense
Somewhere just short…
wow,,, what a wonderful piece,, you play is wonderful (as of course it always is) but this time it's your storyline,,, that blows me away,,, it's ,,, hard to say,,, it's a poem for sure,,, a story/mini epic set to music, and then given life by your voice and your strings,,, really fine r

Wow mate this is really good. Love it
I can see him at your feet as you work on this. They feel what we are thinking.
Quite lovely. The guitar textures are nice.
Exceptional piece Richard. I'm going to listen like 4 times and then save it.
I think your on a whole new level and it's sharp, skillful and really polished.
The songs that just spring out are what is best in RPM. - Nice track Richard.
Dreamy -
Brilliant piece mate really enjoyed this.
It rains in California? .....I enjoyed the journey on this the way the giutar slips into and out of the keys a great job
This is gorgeous!
Richard, you had my heart after reading your description. May Howie live a wonderful life in his senior years. As for the track, it's beautiful! w;-)
Impressionistic, creating an interesting, melancholic atmosphere.
Every piece that you post just stops me in my tracks. Beautiful Richard !!!
I can hear that little fellow in this. Wonderul!
very beautiful
Long live Howie !
Richard, that's quite a challenge! This is wonderful! w;-)
