Welcome to the fifth round of Quarantine Tunes. Volume five is now Volume 50/90 as it's going to be made up entirely of songs from the 2021 50/90 challenge. I'm looking at 10 but might cut it down to eight or nine. I haven't really decided…

I think this was the first song I worked on in the 2021 50/90 (one of the first ones at least) and it still might be my favorite. This is pretty comparable to the first recording from a few months ago. I think the vocals are probably worse here…

I think this one may have lost something in the re-recording process. The mix feels sloppy and the performance seems... well... sloppy. I am going to need to listen to this and the first recording from over the summer back to back before I am…

It's getting silly now. I haven't finished Quarantine Tunes Volume 5 (actually, volume 50/90) and here I am uploading the first song for Volume 6. What a moron! I am scraping the bottom of the barrel as far as the quality of songs to be re…

This was by far my favorite song from the 2021 RPM Challenge, but I was really disappointed with the recording. I thought the rhythm guitars sounded like crap and the vocals were terrible. This version sort of fixes the rhythm guitars but…

UPDATE: I remixed this. I replaced the plate reverbs with rooms. Another song from the 2022 RPM Challenge, re-recorded for Quarantine Tunes Volume Seven. Not a lot different between this and the original. The rhythm guitar is still sloppy…

UPDATE: I remixed this. I replaced the plate reverbs with rooms. I don't know if it's better or not. I told myself that the Quarantine Tunes thing was going to end after volume six. Then I picked songs (mostly from the last couple of RPM…

Crap #3 of 4 that will be finished off and uploaded tonight. I did the rhythm guitar tracks for this twice because the chorus was so atrocious that I had to rewrite it on the fly. It's better now, but that's pretty much all this pig has going…

The second of four bad songs written and recorded in September 2022. The verses might be okay. The chorus is cheesy. It's not as bad as I thought it would be, but it's still pretty lame. The guitars are all Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s and…

Finally, I have something to submit for RPM's Record Every Month. Sure, it's crap but I've had a tough few months. I had stomach surgery almost five months ago and I couldn't play for the first month as I recovered. Then when I started slowly…
