News to Me

Written for the RPM Challenge’s Record Every Month thing back in June and left unfinished and forgotten about until earlier today. I had some vocals to record and wanted something to use to warm up and I found this just waiting for me and finished it. I kinda wish I’d paid closer attention to it back in June. I kinda like it. that bridge thing in the middle has to go, hence me putting 500 pounds of sauce all over it, but otherwise I kinda dig it.

The guitars are all my Les Paul Standard 50’s. The rhythm used an MXR Uni-Vibe into a Ryra The Klone into a Vox AC15. The lead for most of the song was a Dunlop Crybaby into the Ryra into a Keeley D&M Drive into a Vox MV50 Clean. The lead at the very end was a cheap little Joyo Vintage Phase into a Chicago Stompworks Blooze Maker into the Ryra again into the MV50.

Chorus
As though the sun is born of the ocean
and then it goes to rest in the land

Verse 1
Try to stay on target
try to hold the line
try to never regret
that there were never answers

Verse 2 and 3
There’s a simple answer
that’s too much for me
Its the great adventure
that I will never get to see
