A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
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!
very fine,,, i was going to make some comment about bit of a time warp,, but,,, forget that!! this is a really great sound in the here and now,, you have created a really cool ambience
Final version
RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…
Chris sent me this great tune playing his 17 ET guitar and fretless bass, and for some reason i thought Mafia instantly. Sammy the Bull was the under-boss to John Gotti back in the 80's and 90's and he turned informer to bring John Gotti down…
With his lottery money Reg has invested in becoming a funk star. The other reg came up with the tune and Reg jumped all over the thing......come and get funky with thetwoReg

An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

-Lyrics-
A simple mind
not evil or unkind
had lost it's sight
of anything but it's spot in the night
the words should have been unsaid
what they did can't be undone…
Faith is assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
When Faith goes to the market, it always takes a basket.
The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith and the beginning of faith is the end of anxiety. [George Mueller…
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 :

Well, this is a single minute of music around this wonderfull 'Angel Eyes' song. I hope you like and/or enjoy this miniature. Have a great 2011 alonetoners!
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…
Comments on Rick Phillips's stuff
crazy good energy. was it because it was coming or missed you? guitar tone is superb.
For the question on Doreanda,if you did email me at mlrobbie94@gmail.com

Very cool tune.
Oh, lovely laid back feel. Brings to mind summer afternoons in my precious garden.
Nicely done, reminds me a bit of 'within you, without you' by the beatles.
The keys are 70-lishous The samples throughout are cool too.
Yes a world of cool Rick!! enjoyed that man!
Really nice Rick!! Love it!
Very nice textures. Takes me on a journey.
Really gorgeous. and they do kinda mix into eachother. Mines not half as good though, lol
When i was young i thought that's how every record was recorded with a crackle to start. Nice groove
