Thanks for the comment on caligraphy butt.. as a friend of mine once put it 'its like cbeebies on acid'! This however is beautiful and utterly bewitching. A bit special that one.

Ahh like a lovely cup of tea. I was thrilled to bits when you also signed up this year, and although I failed miserably, you knocked it out of the park...again. Thanks for giving me more breezy music to laugh at the world by. Next year, let's do it again. Any physical CDs this year??
Brilliant song - and you make it all sound so effortless. Fresh, cool, quirky (I'm told by my teenage daughters that "quirky" no longer means what I think it means, but they're wrong), just g-o-o-d m-u-s-i-c.
RPM 2024 track 7
A good friend of mine has a Samoyed. This is a song about him.
I was hoping for a kiiind of Cheap Suit Serenaders feel. Acoustic guitar, a 1920s tenor banjo and a brand new mandolin.
This gets a strange emotional reaction from me because I can't imagine you to be anything other than mischievous and irrepressible. But...this is Americana Tango...and I love both. Weirdly though, this takes me to the leafy walkways of Rome and now I want a cappuccino and to send you flowers.
Dean Martin probably wants to record this. I can hear a version with the Hollywood treatment in my head. But this is cooler. You infuse fresh air in everything you record.
Smiling in the first few seconds. This is the Gumbo I love. Lies and Tales is one of my absolute favourites RPM albums of all time, so the bar is pretty high - but this is toe tapping classic Gumbo awesomeness. Yep yip.
Dragged Jazzo away from her celebration cake to record this version of Bossa Nova Breeze by Gerald Schwertberger from her recent Trinity Grade 4 exam (which she aced).
Keyboards: Doug Sparling
Composer: Doug Sparling
Written/Recorded: 2006
Old music library track. I recorded this with a cheap Yamaha keyboard my step-father gave me. Wish I would have add little more to the repeat of the melody, but I think I…
After creating an album every February since 2008 for the RPM Challenge, this year I decided to concentrate on just a song because well, stuff.
So this, an upbeat, optimistic love song. Bandcamp link and video soon to come.
“The expression…
RPM 2k22
it's all you know
so why don't you show me
just how it's done
i'm mesmerized
the way that you lie
mostly to yourself
as if you're someone else
it's killing you
these things that you do to
simply remain
not breaking ground…
RPM 2k22
kiss me softly in the evening light
and like the breeze, i'll be blown away
linger longer if you have the time
and whisper truly that you want to stay
how long, oh eternity
doesn't seem to ever last
forever's just a word it…
RPM 2k22
farewell my concubine
there's no need to get the door
but i'm bored
waiting for your big surprise
I can't wait for tomorrow
for a heart to appear
my dear
and by then you know i'll be gone
there are no words left
no convincing…
RPM 2k22
sigh
waiting through the night
but you're not coming over
thought you were my lover
same
every night and day
every single moment
now you have to own it
sighing, the emptiness
the last caress, fading away
crying, the tears…
RPM 2k22
this night if we are sober
we'll deny that this over
and before we slip away
to sleep and dream of better days
this night if we are sober
we'll decide if this is over
and slip away into a dream
that will tell us, which direction…
RPM 2k22
you can't remember anything tonight
cause you lost the feeling, lost the feeling
the tide is turning, the shoreline is in sight
but you've lost the feeling, lost the feeling
whenever all seems hopeless try
to remember all…

Moody, Wolfy, Sliiick. (Album opener vibes, imho)

Absolute classic Gumbo. Light and breezy, but with a bittersweet (dark even) undertone...how do you do that!?
Super sweet! Love the mandolin and you definitely achieved the feeling you were aiming for. *googles Samoyed*
Oooh yes!! Sultry! Rhythmic! Loving all the layers, all the twists and turns.
Oof yeah, more tango! Lovely harmonies and dreamy guitar.
Mischievous and irrepressible. The prosecution rests.

So proud I can't even.
Rest in peace, you beautiful soul. X
If you wanna go for the single option, this is how you do it - inventive, cool, fun, totally original. I feel stoned. Thanks.
Agree with Will and Andy - a fabulous, eclectic, moody page turner of an album. One to return to again and again.
Anthem!
Awesome - absolutely love the arrangement and vocal layers in the chorus lift it to a new level.
Bitter sweet overload, my bitter sweet overlord.
Hot fave so far - haunting and brilliant!
Cool retro feel to the song-writing. Late night radio.
