A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!

Since Norm found himself in an acoustically great room, full of unfinished cabinets I couldn't help but add some acoustic guitar, crank it up and hope you like it Norm!

The most excellent thing about this, besides your trade-mark sweet stringing, is how you phrased this so very differently than I had ever heard it. That's one of the charms of rhythm - how you hear it depends upon where you are starting from. I think I much prefer your ear to mine with this one. Many thanks.

Deadlines, freeways, appointments, things to do lists, expectations, getting older, not enough hours in the day to get everything done? ..... make each day and moment count! Thanks to Dave Matthews for a lick I threw in there. Enjoy!

My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…

HYSTERIA
poem by: T.S. Eliot (1888-1965)
As she laughed I was aware of becoming involved
in her laughter and being part of it, until her
teeth were only accidental stars with a talent
for squad-drill. I was drawn in by short gasps…
A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.
LYRICS:
I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.

Really wanted to try and learn what i would consider one of the best lead guitar solos of all time, recorded this in early 2010 and it's my effort at learning the solo. Hope you enjoy it.
Well, here is a new version of this one. I was not playing my own guitar, but one of a friend, which doesn't sounds so bright. Anyway, i think this is a better interpretation, but still has some mistakes. (this time is well tuned..)
For everyone who lives in a bright sunny place. Got lots of snow in the mountains today.

Comments on Rick Phillips's stuff
Deep songwriting. I like it. It sets a real mood.
Beautiful sound
This guitar's a real roller :] Travellin' without movin', you don't need anything else than that :]
Wicked! This is a new horizon for me, like it :]
Beautiful job Rick! That new axe is sounding great!
Really liking what you have done here, it's great.
This is brilliant - I love the blend between your awesome guitar and Normy's fine cabinetry masterpiece!
oh man, I really like this one. I had attempted a tune with this perc track using samples of other kitchen sounds but could never get it right. This sounds really good . nice collab guys !
Thats the beauty of collaboration 1+1>2 Thanks Norm
like those cool ethnic drum lines you had playing with the acoustic guitar, the ending mini-jam was impressive!
excellent synthesis of acoustic instruments complimenting each other perfectly!

Very nicely done... The perfect addition to Norm's outstanding use of cabinetry. Great job, Rick!
very nice percussion and guitar blend
3 nice change ups here and good guitar flow and tone though the whole piece Rick.
Nice crystal clear samples, dropped in at perfect times. ideal for this percussion track
Really nice sound, everything works well together :)
Man, excellent. I feel like I'm suspended in an wild place...thanks for the comment on my song. Ed was a friend of mine, and I miss his rage at the machine...adios RJ
