Counterfeit(Lyrics)
The night outside was as Black as coal
Her heart was made of stone
i couldn’t find no place to go
God did…
Igor sent me over this wonderful piano piece and asked if i would like to collaborate on it and i jumped at the chance.............Thank you Igor

Can you imagine the uproar if they weren't ???........The drums have taken over.....what can i say!!.....what to try first?...I know I'll try a drum solo!!...Why Not?.....Watch out Ginger :dance4:
Damn good sounding digital drums! They must have cost you a fist full of pretty pennies! You play them quite well -- them some mighty fine beats! Rock on!

Gene, Farrel ( Lead Guitar) and Jarle(Drums) have out done themselves with this excellent backer allowing me to release my inner Percy on you all again hope you enjoy i know i did ......
Got a lot of bad news this week and this came out.......
i want to see the sunshine
come out through the pouring rain
i want to see the clouds break
i want to see this day start again
oh i’m gonna get down on my knees get down on my knees…
Commenting further -- oooh sooo good! What an amazing mix down and mastering job. The instrumentation is far out, it rules. Love the bass, the guitar, the special effects, EVERYTHING!
Another song created from watching too much TV....
Live in the living room or should i say Cellar.....
The Summertime's Leading me on (LiLR)
as i watch another winter fade and die
i know i’m never gonna get that time again
i know down deep…

Sometimes the simplest of mix downs -- a man and his acoustic guitar -- are the most effective, especially when dealing with such gripping lyrics as these. Rock on!
I didn't mean to turn it into a Ballad it just happened your honor
He Was The Gypsy King To Me
i sit alone thinking of my father in this empty room
and all that he’d done for me
and i sitting alone in this empty room, thinking of what…
I grew up in a 51 Chevy school bus, converted into a camper, with 7 other people, an ocelot, squirrel, and rabbit. My father traveled from state to state, show to show, entertaining strangers with his music while keeping the rest of us alive and together. To me, he was the king of the hobos. He's no longer with us, but your song brought him back to life for me, for a moment. Thank you. Stay groovy!

This one was tricky to do because the piano does not play at a fixed tempo, and it was an online collaboration (like all my collaborations).
EDIT final version now posted and the page turning is gone but i left this intro as is in case anyone is reading the comments. Does anyone read the comments? or the intro?
i turn a page somewhere in the middle of all this - you'd think i would…
it had got a hold of me by 15 sec... oooh yeh the wind did blow......just like the rest....a fantastic album.... if i was king ..... i would give you a tital...arise Sir Gumbo.....master of guitar and vocal
Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
This celtic folk piece is a collaboration with lyricist Donna Devine.
This is Donna's explanation:

Finally going to end this RPM with a slop fest.
Pretty disgusted with my efforts. I did have some fun though.
I feel like I just gave birth to a full set of Ludwigs.
High gloss black of course.
Still reminds me of a 70's tv show but all i can say is it would have had to have be good one ... i would have watched it whatever just for the theme music...excellent....
